We report a case of complete occlusion of capsulorrhexis opening in a patient with chronic angle closure glaucoma with fixed-dilated pupil in the following 2 weeks after an uneventful cataract surgery. The capsulorrhexis diameter was intended to make between 5.0 mm and 5.5 mm, to prevent photophobia afterward. There was no evidence of zonular weakness on preoperative examination or during the s...

ABSTRACT Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the appropriate timing capsular tension ring implantation in cases zonular weakness due pseudoexfoliation syndrome. Methods: This prospective, comparative performed at Ophthalmology Department Inonu University, Malatya, Turkey. There were 43 patients included study. Group 1 (16 patients) had early implantation, and group 2 (27 late implant...

Surgical management of iliopsoas pathology that fails conservative treatment is controversial. Potential complications following tenotomy include recurrent painful internal snapping, postoperative pain, and hip flexor weakness. Concerns are even greater in dysplastic patients, whom the may play a role as an anteromedial stabilizer. Although data demonstrate arthroscopic for snapping safe effect...

anterior megalophthalmos is characterized by megalocornea associated with a very broad anterior chamber and ciliary ring elongation. it is also known as x-linked megalocornea. it is accompanied by the early development of cataracts, zonular anomalies, and rarely vitreoretinal disorders. cataract surgery involves the risk of subluxation of the cataract because zonular weakness. in addition, in m...

Pasteurella multocida is known as one of the main organisms causing pneumonia in sheep. As immunity in pasteurellosis is serogroup specific, identification of prevalent capsular group among endemic areas is essential. The aim of this study was to molecular identification and determine of the capsular type of the P. multocida strains isolated from sheep pneumonia in Iran. Bacteriological and bio...

background: klebseilla pneumoniae causes urinary tract infections, nosocomial pneumonia and intra-abdominal infections. capsular antigens are considered to be the ultimate virulence determinants. among 77 capsular serotypes of k. pneumoniae, serotypes k1 and k2 are the most virulent ones in humans. objectives: we designed a pcr method for detection of capsular serotypes k1 and k2 of k. pneumoni...
