Retin Cases Brief Rep
January 2018
Purpose: To demonstrate unusual retinal findings in a patient with progressive renal failure due to idiopathic monoclonal immunoglobulin light chain deposition disease, using multimodal imaging.
Methods: Observational case report of a 43-year-old white man with renal failure due to light chain deposition disease. His course over 6 years was documented with multimodal imaging including fundus photography, fundus autofluorescence, fluorescein angiography, and spectral domain optical coherence tomography.
The authors describe a case report of idiopathic asymptomatic giant retinal cyst with underlying hyperpigmentation. Low- and high-frequency ultrasound (ultrasound biomicroscopy) revealed an anechoic giant cyst with two hyper-reflective traction bands between the ciliary body and the anterior base of the retinal cyst. There was no retinal detachment.

Objective: To describe a series of patients with fungal endophthalmitis following intravitreal injection of combined bevacizumab and triamcinolone acetonide prepared by the same compounding pharmacy.
Design And Setting: Noncomparative case series.
Purpose: To describe four patients with an unusual presentation of metastatic carcinoma to the eye, diagnosed by histopathologic and immunohistochemical evaluation of vitrectomy material.
Methods: Retrospective case series of four patients with metastatic carcinoma to the retina/vitreous. The New York Eye and Ear Infirmary database was searched to identify patients with metastatic carcinoma to the retina or vitreous, diagnosed from 1995 to 2006.
