TREATMENT OF LACRIMAL GLAND TUMOURS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Lacrimal gland tumours comprise a wide variety of lesions requiring different treatment strategies. Purposes was to evaluate treatment results of lacimal gland tumours (included epithelial tumours and lympho tumours). Subjects of methods: Descriptive research methodology in 108 patients with lacrimal gland tumours in VNIO from October 2016 to September 2019. Most of them have histology results. Results: Among 108 cases of lacimal gland tumours, there were 33 cases of epithelial lacrimal gland tumours (17 cases of benign mixed tumours and 16 cases of lacrimal gland carcinoma ) and 75 cases of lymphoid tumours (47 cases of reactive and typical lymphoid hyperplasia and 28 cases of malignant lymphoma). The treatment methods include surgery (28.21%), chemotherapy (20.51%), radiotherapy (9.4%), corticosteroids (41.03%), immunology (0, 85%). Conclusions: Treatment for lacimal gland tumours depends on the type of tumours and there are many different methods that can be treated with one or combination of methods.
