Objective: To analyze the pathological classification of ocular tumor in children.

Methods: 213 cases (214 eyes) of ocular tumor in children below 14 years old between January 2001 and December 2007 in Henan Eye Institute were reviewed retrospectively, the pathological classification were made according to the location and nature of the tumor.

Results: There were 17 eyes (7.94%) of 214 eyes with benign tumor of eyelid, the leading two tumor were 4 eyes with cyst, in which 1 eye with epidermoid cyst and 3 eyes with dermoid cyst were included, and 3 eyes with squamous papilloma. There were 84 eyes (39.25%) of 214 eyes with conjunctival and corneal tumor, 1 eye with intraepithelial tumor was found, other tumors were all benign tumor, the leading three tumors were corneal dermoid (64 eyes), conjunctival nevus (10 eyes) and squamous papilloma (4 eyes). There were 73 eyes (34.11%) with intraocular tumor including 66 eyes (90.41%) with retinoblastoma, 6 eyes (8.22%) with iris cyst and 1 eye (1.37%) with iris melanoma. Of 38 eyes of orbital tumor, cyst (16 eyes), vascular hamartoma (7 eyes) and inflammatory pseudotumor (4 eyes) were the most common benign tumors, there were 3 eyes (7.89%) with orbital extension of retinoblastoma and 2 eyes (5.26%) with rhabdosarcoma. There were 2 eyes with scleral tumor, including 1 eye with scleral bony choristoma and 1 eye with congenital scleral cyst. Altogether, there are 135 eyes (63.08%) with benign tumor and 79 eyes (36.92%) with malignant tumors.

Conclusions: Most children's ocular tumors are congenital and embryonic tumors. Retinoblastoma is the most common malignant ocular tumor in children, then is corneal dermoid.

It is essential in combat sports such as boxing for athletes to perceive the relevant visual information that enables them to anticipate and respond to their opponent's attacking and defensive moves. Here, we used virtual reality (VR), which enables standardization and reproducibility while maintaining perception-action coupling, to assess the influence of a gaze-contingent blur on the visual processes that underpin these boxing behaviours. Eleven elite French boxers were placed in an immersive and adaptive first-person VR environment where they had to avoid by dodging one or two punches, and then counterattack to strike their opponent.

Background: Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is the most common vasculitis in patients older than 50 years and is considered a "do not miss" diagnosis. However, it remains a diagnostic challenge given overlapping clinical syndromes such as non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) and poorly explored imaging findings.

Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study between the time period of January 2013 and December 2021, a total of 13 consecutive patients with a pathological diagnosis of GCA and 8 patients with clinical diagnosis of NAION were isolated.

Nerve injuries can be tantamount to severe impairment, standard treatment such as the use of autograft or surgery comes with complications and confers a shortened relief. The mechanism relevant to the regeneration of the optic nerve seems yet to be fully uncovered. The prevailing rate of vision loss as a result of direct or indirect insult on the optic nerve is alarming.

A 17-year-old female presented with a mass in the right nasal fossa and eye protrusion. Imaging revealed a large osseous mass originating from the right turbinates, causing exophthalmos without tissue invasion. A partial resection via the Caldwell-Luc approach was performed, but hemodynamic instability halted the procedure, leaving a residual mass.

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) presents various clinical manifestations, including skin lesions, peripheral arthritis, axial involvement, enthesitis, nail involvement, dactylitis, and uveitis. In addition, it causes a high incidence of lifestyle-related diseases and an increase in cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events. As the pathology of PsA has been clarified, molecular-targeted drugs targeting tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-17A, IL-17A/F, IL-17 receptor, IL-12/23(p40), IL-23p19, Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte Antigen-4 (CTLA-4), Janus kinase, and phosphodiesterase-4 have been developed and are widely used in clinical practice.
