Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

2.4K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Accessory Structures of the Eye

1.7K
Optical perception, or vision, is an extraordinary sense dependent on converting light signals received via the ocular organs. These organs, known as eyes, are securely positioned within the bony cavities of the skull, called orbits. The orbits serve a dual purpose: a protective shield for the ocular globes and a stable attachment point for the soft ocular tissues. The eye's external protective mechanisms include the eyelids, which are edged with lashes that act as a barrier against foreign...

Accessory Structures of the Skin: Sebaceous Glands

2.0K
A sebaceous gland is a type of oil gland found almost all over the skin ( except palms and soles) and helps lubricate and waterproof the skin and hair. Most sebaceous glands are associated with hair follicles. They generate and excrete sebum, a mixture of lipids, onto the skin surface, thereby naturally lubricating the dry and dead layer of keratinized cells of the stratum corneum, keeping it pliable.
These glands that produce the oils on the skin and hair are holocrine glands. The mature...

Ovaries01:26

Ovaries

1.1K
The ovaries are roughly the size of almonds and measure approximately 2 to 3 centimeters in length. These paired structures are situated within the pelvic region and are anchored by the mesovarium—a peritoneal extension that also connects them to the wider structure of the broad ligament. The support system extends to the suspensory ligament, housing blood and lymphatic vessels. In addition, the ovarian ligament tethers the ovaries to the uterus.
On the ovarian surface, a layer of...

Muscles of the Eye01:20

Muscles of the Eye

1.6K
The muscles of the eye are sophisticated structures that control eye movement and focus, allowing for the precise and rapid adjustments necessary for vision. The human eye is controlled by ten muscles — six extraocular muscles, three intraocular muscles, and one primary eyelid retractor muscle.
Extraocular Muscles
The six extraocular muscles surround the eyeball and control its movements. They are responsible for a wide range of eye motions, including looking up, down, left, right, and...

Summary

Deep orbital dermoid cysts are common pediatric tumors. This review guides diagnosis and management of these challenging, often asymptomatic, congenital cysts, emphasizing early surgical removal.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Pediatric Oncology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Orbital dermoid cysts are congenital choristomas arising from ectodermal entrapment.
  • They are the most common orbital tumors in children, often diagnosed later in life.
  • Deep cysts can cause proptosis, inflammation, and neurological symptoms, posing diagnostic challenges.

Conclusions:

  • Early diagnosis and complete surgical excision are recommended.
  • Effective management requires a thorough understanding of cyst presentation and surgical considerations.
