Two cases of retroperitoneal hematoma caused by combination of anticoagulant therapy and 5-fluorouracil.

We reported two cases of retroperitoneal hematoma in patients who received a combination of anticoagulant therapy and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). We should be aware of the possible interaction of this combination therapy and monitor prothrombin time (PT) prolongation. CT is useful for evaluation of the disease.

Impaired vertical phoria adaptation in patients with cerebellar dysfunction.

Purpose: To determine whether phoria adaptation to a vertical prism disparity is altered in patients with cerebellar dysfunction.

Methods: With a computer-aided haploscope, adaptive responses of fusion-free eye position to a 10- or 30-minute period was measured in subjects wearing a 3-prism diopter vertical prism over one eye. Thirteen patients with well-documented cerebellar diseases who did not have manifest ocular misalignment or limited versional eye movement and age-matched healthy subjects participated.
