Ocular ischemic manifestations in fibromuscular dysplasia.

Purpose: To report visual, clinical and radiological outcomes of three patients with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) that presented different ocular ischemic events, supported by different multimodal imaging.

Methods: A retrospective study including patients who attended a tertiary referral hospital from July 2016 to June 2019 referring acute visual loss and later diagnosed of FMD. Ophthalmological examination included best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), biomicroscopy, fundoscopy, fluorescein angiography (FA), and macular and retinal nerve fiber layer spectral domain optic coherence tomography (SD-OCT).

Detecting Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With an Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source (from the DAF-ESUS registry).

Atrial fibrillation (AF) causes a substantial proportion of embolic strokes of undeterminded source (ESUS). Effective detection of subclinical AF (SCAF) has important therapeutic implications. We conducted a prospective study to determine the prevalence of SCAF in patients with ESUS through of a 21-day Holter monitoring.

Incomplete cavernous sinus syndrome as the initial manifestation of a previously undetected metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma.

Background: Cavernous sinus syndrome presents as unilateral ophthalmoplegia associated with sympathetic denervation, pain, paresthesias, and V1 and V2 distribution numbness. The etiology may be vascular, inflammatory, infectious, and, less commonly, neoplastic (metastatic).

Methods: We report a patient with incomplete cavernous sinus syndrome as the initial manifestation of previously undetected metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma.
