Changjiang Daily Wuhan Client July 20th (Correspondent Pei Nishang) A 7-year-old boy’s eyelids repeatedly grew puffy, and the parents asked the village doctor to puncture them with a needle, resulting in scarring on the child’s eyelids deformity.
The 7-year-old Ruirui (pseudonym) lives in Zhongxiang City. Over the past two years, her eyelids have repeatedly grown lumps. The local village medical needle was used to puncture the mass, which resulted in scarring on the eyelids of both eyes.
On July 13, Ruirui’s mother took him to the Aier Eye Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University for treatment.
The doctor operates on the child.
Lu Xiulan, Deputy Chief Physician of the Eyelid and Orbital Disease/Ophthalmology and Cosmetology Department of the hospital, found that Rui Rui was suffering from scarring ectropion and closed eyelid due to repeated skin ulceration of the eyelid. Incomplete, eyelid deformity.
Director Lu Xiulan said that whether it is a stye or a chalazion, regular treatment is required. If the initial medication does not improve and the mass has formed, it is necessary to perform incision and row surgery in time. Repeated ruptures like Rui Rui’s left a lot of scarring, resulting in ectropion of the eyelid, and even eyelid deformity, affecting the child’s appearance and causing unnecessary harm to the child.
On July 14, after more than two hours of surgery, Director Lu Xiulan successfully performed skin flap transfer + deformity correction surgery for Ruirui under general anesthesia. Because there is not enough skin in the ruptured eyelid area, Director Lu Xiulan can only take the skin from the outside of the eyelid and implant it in the place where the scar is the most tightly contracted.
Currently, Rui Rui’s eyelid deformity has been corrected and her condition is recovering further.
Tu Huifang, chief physician of the Eyelid and Orbital Disease/Eye Plastic and Cosmetology Department of Aier Eye Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University, reminded that whether it is a stye or a chalazion, it must be treated in time according to the doctor’s advice, and it must not be simply broken. .
