METHODS: Between 2020 and 2021, 34 patients (30 females, 4 males; mean age 36.2 years) with sunken eyes were treated with our described technique. All patients underwent an endoscopic SOS procedure under general anesthesia.
RESULTS: A total of 34 patients (30 women and four men), aged 23-59 years old (mean = 36.2 years), underwent the endoscopic SOS procedure. The mean follow-up period was 13 months (range: 12-16 months). Postoperatively, significant improvement in lateral convexity was achieved in all patients. Physical examinations performed at the control visits revealed no functional problems in any patients and no visible or palpable irregularities or contour deformities. No complications were encountered regarding the SOS procedure.
CONCLUSIONS: The technique described here provides significant improvement in lateral convexity compared to other techniques used in patients with sunken eyes. No additional eyelid intervention is needed. Unlike the techniques previously described in the literature, intervention is made in the bone structure, thereby providing more accurate results.

方法:在2020年至2021年之间,34名患者(30名女性,4名男性;平均年龄36.2岁)用我们描述的技术治疗眼睛凹陷。所有患者在全身麻醉下接受了内窥镜SOS程序。
结果:共有34名患者(30名女性和4名男性),23-59岁(平均=36.2岁),接受了内窥镜SOS程序。平均随访时间为13个月(范围:12-16个月)。术后,所有患者的侧凸性均有显著改善.在对照访问中进行的身体检查显示,任何患者均无功能问题,也没有可见或可触知的不规则或轮廓畸形。没有遇到关于SOS程序的并发症。
结论:与在眼睛凹陷的患者中使用的其他技术相比,此处描述的技术提供了侧向凸度的显着改善。不需要额外的眼睑介入。与文献中先前描述的技术不同,在骨骼结构中进行干预,从而提供更准确的结果。
