Abstract
A 72-year-old woman with chronic lymphocytic leukemia developed periorbital swelling, erythema, and discharge involving her anophthalmic left socket in the course of pseudomonas aeruginosa septicemia. Histopathologic examination of debrided eyelid tissues revealed ischemic necrosis of the eyelid margin and deeper eyelid tissues. Underlying malignancy, disseminated systemic infection, and alteration in the vascular supply to the eyelids following enucleation may have contributed to the development of ischemic eyelid necrosis in this patient.
