Purpose: The optic nerve (ON) is mechanically perturbed by eye movements that shift cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within its surrounding dural sheath. This study compared changes in ON length and CSF volume within the intraorbital ON sheath caused by eye movements in healthy subjects and patients with optic neuropathies.
Methods: Twenty-one healthy controls were compared with 11 patients having primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) at normal intraocular pressure (IOP), and 11 with chronic non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NA-AION).

Background: Prone transpsoas lumbar interbody fusion (PTP) is a newer technique to treat various spinal disc pathologies. PTP is a variation of lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) that is performed with the patient prone rather than in the lateral decubitus position. This approach offers similar benefits of lateral spinal surgery, which include less blood loss, shorter hospital stay, and quicker recovery compared with traditional open spine surgery.

Background: The paramedian forehead flap (PMFF) has been well established for use in reconstruction limited to a single nasal outer layer defect and has recently gained recognition as an acceptable alternative to traditional methods of lower eyelid reconstruction. The use of a single, pedicled PMFF for the reconstruction of more than one defect has yet to be described.
Methods: A 59-year-old male patient was originally diagnosed with large squamous cell carcinoma resulting in radical resection and ipsilateral neck dissection.
