Ruptured retinal macroaneurysm complicated by a retro hyaloidal hematoma: about a case and review of the literature.

A 45 years old patient consulted for a sudden decrease in visual acuity in the right eye. Ophthalmological examination gave visual acuity limited to luminous perceptions with a calm anterior segment, a transparent lens and at the fundus examination a dense, massive, two-level intra-retinal and retro hyaloidal pigeon nest hemorrhage with a fusiform whitish lesion on the path of the upper temporal artery. The suspected diagnosis was a complicated ruptured retinal macroaneurysm with massive retinal and retro hyaloidal hemorrhage.

[Intraocular foreign body and endophthalmitis: risk factors and management].

This study aims to identify the risk factors for post-traumatic endophthalmitis (PTE) due to intraocular foreign body (IFB) in patients with penetrating injuries of the globe and to assess treatment outcomes. We conducted a descriptive, retrospective study of 60 patients hospitalized for penetrating wound due to intraocular foreign body at the Hedi Rais Institute of Ophthalmology, Tunis, over a period of 10 years.
