: To report a patient with choroidal bulging, sub-retinal fluid, and optic nerve head (ONH) swelling who was finally diagnosed with focal nodular posterior scleritis. : A 51-year-old male patient presented to us with acute painful visual loss of his left eye (LE) from 3 days ago. The best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA) was 20/20 and hand motion (HM) for the right eye (RE) and LE, respectively.

This involves fine-tuning between transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms and strongly depends on the metabolic state of the cell. Together these processes guarantee an adaptive plasticity of tissue-specific genetic programs.

The risk factors for IPFF during HA in displaced femoral neck fractures (FNF) remains to be fully elucidated. This study aims to compare IPFF rates between compaction broaching and conventional broaching techniques for cementless HA in FNF.
