Necrotizing scleritis after strabismus surgery in Treacher Collins syndrome.
Objective: To describe a case of surgically induced scleral necrosis in Treacher Collins syndrome after strabismus surgery. Methods: A 19-year-old girl underwent bilateral squint surgery. Two weeks postoperatively, she presented with subconjunctival abscess in the left eye. The surrounding conjunctiva was markedly inflamed with raised edges. Surgical debridement, microbiological evaluation and medical management were started immediately. Screening for autoimmune and vasculitic conditions did not provide any positive results. Results: On subsequent follow-up, conjunctival retraction and an area of scleral necrosis with thinning was noted. Significant healing with antibiotics and steroids was noted within one week. The integrity of the globe was well maintained and no further procedure for tectonic support was performed. Conclusion: Surgically induced scleral necrosis can be immune-mediated or following surgical site infection. Pre-existing scleral thinning due to neuroectodermal apoptosis in Treacher Collins syndrome remains a possible explanation for the accelerated necrotising scleritis in our case.
