Cases of herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) complicated by bilateral ophthalmoplegia are rare, and no cases of bilateral third, fourth, or sixth cranial nerve palsies have been reported. Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) is a rare complication of HZO. We herein report an 80-year-old Japanese woman with right-sided HZO complicated by meningoencephalitis and discuss the pathogenesis of this condition. She developed bilateral third, fourth, and sixth cranial nerve palsies and SIADH almost simultaneously during treatment for HZO. The bilateral cranial palsy spontaneously resolved within a few months.

Evaluation with finite element analysis of a ball attachment overdenture prosthesis of a patient.
Dent Mater J
December 2024
Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Atatürk University.
This study aimed to apply finite element analysis (FEA) to simulate the oral environment of a patient with an implant-supported overdenture prosthesis. A 3D mandibular model was created for a 45-year-old female patient from CT images, with mucosal thickness measured at 3 mm on average using ultrasonography. The overdenture prosthesis was scanned with an intraoral scanner and placed onto the 3D mandibular model.

Ege University Medical School, Department of Neurology, 35100, İzmir, Turkey.
Background: The new optic neuritis (ON) classification leads to a change in how ON patients are grouped. Our aim is to appraise the clinical features and prognoses of patients with autoimmune ON not associated with MS.
Methods: Patients referred to our neuro-ophthalmology laboratory were enrolled to this retrospective study.
The effects of microsurgical varicocelectomy performed for infertility on premature ejaculation.
Int Urol Nephrol
December 2024
Urocentre Urology Clinic, Adana, Turkey.
Purpose: To investigate the effects of varicocelectomy on premature ejaculation (PE) in patients with varicocele and infertility.
Methods: A total of 82 sexually active patients aged 18 years or over who had undergone microscopic subinguinal varicocelectomy with a clinical diagnosis of varicocele in 14 urology clinics between October 2021 and March 2023 with primary infertility were evaluated prospectively Patients were evaluated using the Turkish validated form of the 'Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool' (PEDT) scale. A PEDT score of 11 or above was taken to indicate the presence of PE.
The extreme lateral transodontoid approach for large tumors in children in the ventral craniocervical junction.
J Neurosurg Pediatr
December 2024
1Division of Pediatric Neurosurgery, Department of Surgery, Texas Children's Hospital, Houston.
Objective: Tumors in the ventral craniocervical junction (CCJ) pose unique challenges, particularly in children. The potential constraints with endoscopic approaches to tumors extending inferiorly and laterally and the risk of CSF leakage can be exacerbated in the pediatric population. Here, the authors present their experience with the extreme lateral transodontoid (ELTO) approach in children with large ventral CCJ tumors as an alternative or complement to anterior approaches.

December 2024
Adnexal Service, Moorfields Eye Hospital, London, United Kingdom.
Purpose: To characterize symptoms and signs for patients with tearing eye(s) and ipsilateral nasolacrimal duct stenosis (NLDS), as defined by delayed fluorescein disappearance test and ocular reflux of saline during gentle irrigation of a patent drainage system.
Methods: Retrospective case-note review of a consistent grading of 4 symptoms and 7 signs, together with estimates of the degree of fluid reflux and nasal fluid passage on gentle saline syringing. Characteristics, including gender differences, were compared for unilateral or bilateral symptoms.
