Translation of "Ektropium" in English

Very often one notices that the mucosa of the eyelids is "everted", this is called ectropion.

After implantation of coralline hydroxyapatite, an ectropion appeared in 40% of the cases.

In more severe ectropion and floppy eyelid, inverting sutures are a valuable choice.

Ectropion is a medical condition in which the lower eyelid turns outward.

Nonetheless in some cases there are dogs with an entropion or ectropion .

The conventional method using external incisions can lead to inverted eyelids (ectropion).

On lid closure the ectropion worsened due to a functional shortening of the anterior lid lamella.

Careful testing of corneal sensation in eyes previously operated upon, avoidance of injection into the lower lid area to avoid ectropion, and vigorous treatment of any epithelial defect should be employed.

Barber-Say syndrome (BSS) is a very rare congenital disorder associated with excessive hair growth (hypertrichosis), fragile (atrophic) skin, eyelid deformities (ectropion), and an overly broad mouth (macrostomia).

It is also prone to CHD, gastric torsion, ectropion, PPM, vaginal hyperplasia, elbow dysplasia and PRA.

Persistent ectropion is caused by the extraction of too much of the skin, or by complications of deep scars in the muscles and ligaments.

Common pedigree-specific diseases in the small animal practice are for example ectropion, entropion, ptosis or prolapsus bulbi.

Ectropion is another aging-related eyelid condition that causes chronic eye irritation and scarring.

Retraction and eversion of the lower lid (ectropion) are considered consequences of scar formation of the lower eyelid.

Ectropion occurs either after a too radical skin removal, or temporarily when there is bruising and swelling, or in a very stormy healing process accompanied with formation of subcutaneous adhesions.

Conclusion: Temporary ectropion in congenital ichthyosis can result as a functional shortening of the anterior lid lamella.

Some minor concerns are hip dysplasia, ectropion, entropion, PRA, allergies, seborrhea, lip fold pyoderma, otitis externa, liver disease, urolithiasis, prolapse of nictitans gland, CHF, phosphofructokinase deficiency, and cardiomyopathy.

Ectropion, a turning outward of the eyelid, is commonly found in Great Danes, bloodhounds, and spaniels.

Ectropion is a condition which describes the margin of the eyelid rolling outward, resulting in exposure of the palpebral conjunctiva (the portion of tissue that lines the inner lids).

Ectropion can also result from various injuries, chemical or thermal burns, diseases such as cicatricial pemphigoid and allergies.

We can also execute surgical procedures of the eye, e.g. in case of entropion, ectropion, blepharophimosis, sty, tumor, dystichiasis, ectopic eyelashes, etc. We also take care of prolapses of the tarsal glands (by repositioning the gland rather than removing it as that leads to dry eyes!) and do surgery on the conjunctiva as well as conjunctival scrapings.
