| description | Abstract Background To describe the effectiveness of combined pentagonal resection and inferior retractor plication (PR + IRP) based on the Hill’s procedure for the treatment of primary involutional lower eyelid entropion in the Chinese population. Methods This is a retrospective review of 52 eyelids of 46 patients who underwent PR + IRP for treatment of involutional entropion between May 2009 and May 2017. Patient demographics, presence of pre-operative laxity, post-operative outcome and presence of complications were all recorded from electronic patient records. Results A total of 52 eyelids of 46 patients received PR + IRP. None had recurrence of entropion, 1 (2.1%) had residual entropion, 2 eyelids (4.4%) had lower eyelid notching, 1 eyelid (2.2%) had infection and 1 eyelid (2.2%) had overcorrection. The overall success rate was 90.4%. Conclusion Combined PR + IRP is an effective surgical procedure for primary involutional entropion with low recurrence rate. However, it may carry risk of eyelid notching post-operatively. |
