Purpose: To identify the risk factors for a recurrence of a bleb-related infection (BRI).
Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Methods: The medical records of all patients diagnosed with BRI at Gifu University Hospital between January 1989 and December 2020 were reviewed.
Article Synopsis
- McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a rare condition that includes complications like fibrous dysplasia (FD) and can lead to issues like facial deformities and pain; aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) can also occur as complications.
- A 9-year-old boy was admitted to the hospital with acute visual disturbances, and was diagnosed with an ABC associated with MAS, leading to surgical intervention.
- After the surgery, the patient's vision returned to normal with no recurrence of complications in three years; genetic analysis revealed a mutation related to the condition, highlighting the need to consider ABC in similar cases of visual loss and facial swelling.
Aims: To compare the changes in the macular retinal nerve fibre layer (mRNFL), macular ganglion cell layer and inner plexiform layer (mGCIPL), and circumpapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (cpRNFL) in various stages of normal tension glaucoma (NTG) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography.
Methods: Eyes with NTG (n=218) were assigned into three groups based on initial mean deviation (MD) as follows: mild (MD>-6 dB), moderate (-6 dB≥MD≥-12 dB) and severe (-12 dB>MD>-20 dB). Annual rates of change in mRNFL, mGCIPL and cpRNFL thickness were calculated by linear regression analysis.
