  • Title: Delayed periocular hemorrhage after upper blepharoplasty.
    Author: Grumbine FL, Deparis SW, Kersten RC, Vagefi MR.
    Journal: Orbit; 2015 Apr; 34(2):103-5. PubMed ID: 25797846.
    Abstract:
    Periocular and orbital hemorrhage are rare complications of blepharoplasty, with a reported incidence of 0.055%. These complications are even less common more than 48 h after surgery. The authors report 2 cases of postoperative hemorrhage 5 and 8 days following uncomplicated upper blepharoplasty in which the initiating factor seems to have been uncontrolled hypertension. Details of the presentation, management and follow-up of each patient are described. These cases serve as an important reminder that patients must be appropriately counseled regarding the postoperative implications of their systemic conditions.
