miliary tuberculosis (tb) is due to hematogenous spread of mycobacterium tuberculosis. clinical manifestations are nonspecific and protean, depending on the predominant site of involvement.we evaluated the clinical manifestations of 15 patients with miliary tb. the diagnosis of miliary tuberculosis was based on the identification of miliary nodules on chest radiography and one of the three foll...

the breast tuberculosis (tb) is an extremely rare manifestation for the reason that mammary cells offer great resistance to the survival and multiplication of mycobacterium infection. the diagnosis is difficult because of nonspecific clinical and radiological findings. it is usually suspected in a multiparous, reproductive woman. we report three cases of tubercular infection of breast confirmed...

Tuberculosis of the foot is an uncommon entity and the reported incidence is 0.1% to 0.3%. The isolated tuberculosis of talonavicular joint is exceptionally rare. In tuberculosis of the foot and ankle, the presentation is usually nonspecific. The diagnosis of tuberculosis affecting foot is difficult, especially when it is isolated. In doubtful cases, diagnosis should be confirmed by histopathol...

This case report describes a case of Alagille syndrome with developing intraocular lens subluxation and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment 4 years after cataract surgery. A 15-year-old female patient with Alagille syndrome-associated cataracts in both eyes underwent phacoemulsification aspiration and intraocular lens implantation. Four years postoperative, intraocular lens subluxation developed ...

AIM To analyze the outcome of combined clear cornea phacoemulsification, vitrectomy, foreign body extraction, and intraocular lens implantation in patients with traumatic cataract and intraocular foreign body. METHODS Retrospective analysis included the results of combined cataract and vitreoretinal surgery in 16 patients. All patients had a penetrating eye injury, traumatic cataract, and int...

introduction: in cases of poor satisfaction with aphakic glasses and intolerant or reluctant to use contact lenses, secondary intraocular lens (iol) implantation provide an alternative aphakic vision correction. this study aimed to evaluate surgical problems.  intraoperative and postoperative complications and visual acuity outcomes of secondary anterior and posterior chamber intraocular lens i...

The influence of common carotid occlusion on intraocular pressure was studied in rabbits by perfusion and tonographic techniques. Bilateral common carotid occlusion caused a greater ocular volume change than homolateral occlusion. If homolateral occlusion was followed by contralateral occlusion, there was consistently an additional fall in intraocular pressure. The initial fall in intraocular p...

artery blood flow and the retinal oxygen tension, however, remained elevated for 15 min. Discussion. The VER from anesthetized animals has been extensively studied by others, and our recordings are similar to those they have obtained. It is not clear which cortical structures generate the different waves of the VER, but in the eye it appears to be primarily foveal in origin. We have previously ...
