Purpose: The purpose of this article is to report a case of sudden onset ischemic retinal central vein occlusion after a second dose of COVID-19 adenoviral vector vaccine.
Case Report/observations: A 54-year-old woman with systemic arterial hypertension developed ischemic central retinal vein occlusion in her right eye on day 2 after the second dose of COVID-19 adenoviral vector vaccine ChAdOx1 nCoV-19/ AZD1222, Oxford-AstraZeneca.
Conclusion: Adenoviral vector vaccine promotes both cellular and humoral immune responses, increasing the level of inflammatory cytokines. These cytokines are the same implied in the possible pathogenesis of central retinal vein occlusion. Subsequently, we recommend informing patients at risk of possible ocular adverse events, which require urgent evaluation.

Background: Postoperative complications are potential factors influencing the prognosis of patients with HCC combined with CSPH. This study aims to explore the risk factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative complications, investigate potential factors influencing long-term prognosis in these patients, and establish predictive models.
Methods: From April 2018 to December 2021, a total of 190 patients with HCC combined with CSPH who underwent curative liver resection in our hospital were included, comprising 69 cases in the complication group and 121 cases in the non-complication group.

Article Synopsis
- PAH can cause serious ocular conditions like CRVO and CilRAO due to high blood pressure in the lungs affecting blood flow to the eyes.
- A 13-year-old girl with a history of heart surgery experienced sudden vision loss, with tests revealing both CRVO and CilRAO, along with signs of severe PAH.
- Treatment with Bosentan and traditional Chinese medicine led to significant vision improvement, highlighting the importance of addressing cardiovascular issues to prevent eye complications and the need for a comprehensive approach in such complex cases.

Objective: To describe the treatment outcomes of patients who underwent Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) for Central Vein Occlusive Disease (CVOD) in end-stage kidney disease and determine the association between patient profile and treatment outcomes.
Methods: A single-institution, retrospective review of patients aged 18 and above with end-stage kidney disease who underwent PTA for CVOD in the University of the Philippines - Philippine General Hospital (UP-PGH) from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2022, was performed. These patients' demographic and clinical profiles were evaluated using means, frequencies, and percentages.
Nonocclusive Ablation Technique Using a Novel Cryoballoon for Failed Left Superior Pulmonary Vein Isolation Despite Complete Occlusion.

Article Synopsis
- This study examines factors influencing the failure of left superior pulmonary vein (LSPV) isolation during cryoballoon (CB) procedure, even when complete occlusion is achieved.
- Researchers analyzed 300 patients undergoing ablation, identifying two groups based on their LSPV isolation results: those needing additional freezing (Group A) and those only needing complete occlusion (Group B).
- Key findings show that Group A had larger LSPV diameters, higher left atrial volumes, and different freezing conditions, suggesting the importance of balloon positioning for effective isolation in challenging cases.
