<div><h3>Objective</h3><div>This study aims to assess morphometric variations in bony nasolacrimal ducts (BNLDs) and sinonasal anatomy in Asian patients with unilateral primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction (PANDO) through computed tomography (CT).</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>We enrolled 34 patients with unilateral PANDO who underwent endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy, alongside 34 age- and sex-matched control patients without documented epiphora complaints. We compared BNLD and sinonasal parameters on CT images between the affected and unaffected sides of PANDO patients and the control group.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>The entrance area of the BNLD was larger on the affected side of unilateral PANDO patients compared to both the unaffected side (<em>p</em> = 0.012) and the control group (<em>p</em> = 0.046). The open angle in the coronal plane was greater on both the affected (<em>p</em> = 0.044) and unaffected side (<em>p</em> = 0.028) than in the control group. Minimal area and distal area in the axial plane showed no differences among the 3 groups. Paranasal parameters did not differ between the study and control groups. More patients in the study group had superiorly located nasal septum deviation than the control group (<em>p</em> = 0.048). A trend suggested that more patients in the study group had anteriorly located nasal septum deviation than the control group (<em>p</em> = 0.056), although not reaching statistical significance.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>The increased angular tilt in PANDO patients could impede fluid drainage from a fluidics standpoint. The larger BNLD area on the affected side reflects inflammation-induced osteolysis.

<div><h3>Objective</h3><div>Periocular squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is relatively rare and presents unique anatomic considerations due to proximity to the eye and risk to ocular structures associated with high-dose radiation therapy or radical surgery. We present our observations in patients with periocular SCC treated with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy in an effort to decrease surgical morbidity or avoid high-dose radiation therapy.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>Retrospective review of patients with orbital, conjunctival, or periocular SCC who were treated with ICI either in the neoadjuvant setting prior to surgery or for treatment of perineural spread in the orbit/skull base.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>Twelve men and 5 women with orbital (n = 6), conjunctival (n = 5), or lacrimal sac/duct (n = 2) SCC, or SCC with perineural spread (n = 4) were treated with ICI (cemiplimab or pembolizumab) either as single drug (n = 9) or combined with chemotherapy (n = 8). Overall, 5 patients achieved complete response, 8 patients achieved partial response, and 4 patients achieved stable disease, using the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) criteria. The objective response rate was 76.5%. In 12 patients ICI was used in the neoadjuvant setting prior to surgery. In 4 patients with perineural spread and unresectable disease, ICI was used to avoid high-dose radiation therapy. One additional patient with conjunctival SCC with nodal metastasis was treated with ICI alone and achieved a dramatic complete response and has thus far managed to avoid surgery altogether.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>ICI either as single drug or in combination with chemotherapy has a high response rate in patients with periocular SCC.

Overall, 5 patients achieved complete response, 8 patients achieved partial response, and 4 patients achieved stable disease, using the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) criteria. The objective response rate was 76.5%. In 12 patients ICI was used in the neoadjuvant setting prior to surgery. In 4 patients with perineural spread and unresectable disease, ICI was used to avoid high-dose radiation therapy.
