Safety and efficacy of the yellow sub-threshold micropulse laser for uveitic macular edema: A pilot study.

Purpose: To assess the safety and efficacy of the yellow sub-threshold micropulse laser (YSML) in eyes with uveitic macula edema (UME).

Methods: A prospective interventional study. Eyes with non-infectious UME and an unsatisfactory response to prior conventional treatments underwent navigated YSML (NAVILAS).

Chronic respiratory disorders due to aberrant innominate artery: a case series and critical review of the literature.

Background: Tracheal compression (TC) due to vascular anomalies is an uncommon, but potentially serious cause of chronic respiratory disease in childhood. Vascular slings are congenital malformations resulting from abnormal development of the great vessels; in this group of disorders the most prevalent entity is the aberrant innominate artery (AIA). Here we provide a report on diagnosis and treatment of AIA in nine children with unexplained chronic respiratory symptoms.

Changes in the uninjected contralateral eye after intravitreal brolucizumab for exudative age-related macular degeneration.

Purpose: Herein we describe the change in the amount of macular oedema in one eye after contralateral intravitreal brolucizumab injections in a patient with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).

Case Report: A patient with bilateral nAMD underwent intravitreal bevacizumab injections in both eyes with little improvement in the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central macular exudation. The treatment was switched to aflibercept, but there was incomplete drying of the macula in both eyes.

Metastatic choriocarcinoma with hemorrhagic complications and spontaneous ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome: A case report.

Gestational choriocarcinoma is a malignant trophoblastic tumor arising from any gestational event, even with a long latency period, generally in the reproductive female. It is associated with a high level of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin. Its primary site is usually the uterus but not all patients have a detectable lesion in this site.

Cerebellum and cognition in Friedreich ataxia: a voxel-based morphometry and volumetric MRI study.

Background: Recent studies have suggested the presence of a significant atrophy affecting the cerebellar cortex in Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) patients, an area of the brain long considered to be relatively spared by neurodegenerative phenomena. Cognitive deficits, which occur in FRDA patients, have been associated with cerebellar volume loss in other conditions. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between cerebellar volume and cognition in FRDA.
