Dupilumab-induced ocular surface disease: a primer.

The management of atopic diseases has been revolutionised by precision therapies and biological drugs that target specific immune proteins. This report elucidates a unique complication from the use of the monoclonal antibody, dupilumab, that primary care providers and subspecialists need to be aware of. A patient in her 40s consulted us for severe atopic asthma, food allergy and eczema involving the face and body.

Comparison of 1-site versus 2-site phacotrabeculectomy.

Purpose: To compare the results of 1-site versus 2-site combination glaucoma filtration and phacoemulsification surgery with respect to visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), and glaucoma medication requirements via a case control study.

Methods: Results of 2-site phacotrabeculectomy surgery in 64 eyes of 59 patients were retrospectively reviewed with a minimum follow-up of 1 year. The 2-site procedures were compared with a randomly chosen control group of 71 1-site phacotrabeculectomies performed by the same surgeon.

Ki-1(CD30) positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma: primary nodal disease relapsing as erythroderma.

Ki-1 (CD30) positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is an uncommon, high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with distinct morphologic and immunohistochemical features. Solitary or multiple ulcerated nodules typically characterize cutaneous involvement. Erythroderma is very rare.

Bullous lesions in scleroderma.

Background: The occurrence of bullous lesions in localized or systemic scleroderma is rare. Three histologic patterns have been reported: lichen sclerosus et atrophicus-like, lymphangiectatic blisters and autoimmune blistering diseases.

Objective: To investigate the frequency, clinical, and immunopathologic features of patients with scleroderma and bullous eruptions and to review the literature regarding this rare condition.
