[Orbital lymphangioma. Apropos of 2 uncommon cases].

Lymphangiomas can be considered as hemodinamically isolated vascular hamartomas. They are rare tumors, and their orbito-palpebral location can be cosmetically and functionally detrimental. In severe cases, the treatment is mainly surgical and effective only if complete removal is performed. The result is often deceiving because of the diffuse extension of these tumors. We hereby report two exceptionally severe cases that both presented with major cosmetic impairment and visual loss. We discuss literature available, the management and the methods of treatment and the non-surgical alternatives.

[Penetrating keratoplasty: the in situ corneal procurement].

The authors hereby present an enucleation-free harvesting technique that allows in good security conditions harvesting of donors corneas with or without scleral rim. It also permits the ad integrum tegumentary reconstruction imposed by the legislation on organ transplantation. This results in a better acceptance on behalf of the donor families, France-Transplant harvesting team and morgue staff members. They believe that this technique must supplant enucleation.

One case of Hashimoto's thyroiditis diagnosed through out atypical ophthalmological symptoms, leads the authors to formulate different hypothesis integrating all the elements of this case in a single nosographical system, following a review of the literature on thyroid ophthalmopathy.
