Latent tuberculosis-related scleritis: a case report.

Background: Scleritis is a painful inflammatory process centered in the sclera that may involve the cornea and the underlying uvea. The etiology is commonly idiopathic or autoimmune but some cases are associated with systemic infection such as tuberculosis.

Case Presentation: In this report, we describe an unusual case of a female Moroccan patient who had a long history of bilateral recurrent scleritis associated with peripheral keratopathy and anterior uveitis.

[A new clinical entity: ascending solar iris degeneration. Report of 284 cases].

The observation in a certain number of subjects of an atypical iris depigmentation led us to study this phenomenon. Therefore, the authors engaged in a prospective study of 398 subjects (100 cases in the city of Marrakesh, and 298 in the city of Dakhla). The geography, clinical signs and environmental factors were studied.

[Giant apocrine hydrocystoma of the internal canthus].

Hydrocystoma is a benign tumor whose development involves the sudoriferous eccrine or apocrine glands. We report the case of a giant apocrine hydrocystoma in a 70-year-old female diabetic patient. The tumor's natural progression over 10 years and its volume caused significant functional and aesthetic damage.

[Congenital retinal macrovessel associated with central serous retinopathy].

Retinal macrovessel is a rare disease. Since the first description in 1869 by Mauthner, fewer than 30 cases have been reported. We report a case of congenital retinal macrovessel in a 28-year-old patient with no pathological history.
