Abstract:
Peripapillary staphyloma is usually unassociated with other ocular and systemic anomalies. A 5-year-old girl presented with peripapillary staphyloma in association with extensive ipsilateral orofacial capillary hemangioma involving the right forehead, right upper and lower eyelids, the right cheek, and the hard palate. She had received oral corticosteroids to induce regression of the hemangiomas at six months of age. On our examination, her visual acuity was counting fingers at two meters right eye and 20/20 left eye. She had mild right upper eyelid ptosis and right exotropia. Imaging studies did not show any central nervous system abnormality. There has been no progression or contraction in the staphylomatous lesion during 24 months of follow-up. Like the morning glory disk anomaly, peripapillary staphyloma may be associated with facial capillary hemangioma.

Papillary Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
