    Spectrum approach to congenital ectropion
    (2022) GONÇALVES, Allan Christian Pieroni; YOSHIDA, Marcel Nakae; LEITE, Lívio Viana de Oliveira; FEIJÓ, Eduardo Damous; LIMONGI, Roberto Murillo; MATAYOSHI, Suzana
    ABSTRACT In the literature, there is a confusing classification among congenital floppy eyelid, eyelid eversion and ectropion. They are described as eyelid malposition with laxity and out-turning of the eyelids in newborns, usually associated with conjunctival prolapse and chemosis. Although the underlying pathophysiology of these rare conditions is obscure, they share anatomic characteristics. Thus, instead of a plethora of denominations, a spectrum approach should join these entities. In this paper, the authors present a case series of four patients that illustrates distinctive presentations of this condition and advocate that it should be considered as variants of a spectrum of congenital ectropion. Mild cases, when promptly treated, can benefit from clinical treatment. On the other hand, severe and delayed cases will need surgical correction as in the case of acquired ectropion.
