Objectives: To evaluate the epidemiology, etiology, and outcomes of pediatric open-glob injury patients treated at a tertiary medical center in Istanbul, Türkiye.
Methods: The records of 56 pediatric patients who underwent primary open-globe injury repair at our clinic between 2016 and 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Data about demographics, date-setting of the injury, type of the traumatizing object, injury size, and zone were collected.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed open globe injury (OGI) cases in children under six, involving 106 patients predominantly male (57.5%) with an average age of 4.14 years.
- Sharp objects were the leading cause of OGI, primarily affecting the right eye and resulting in various complications, including traumatic cataracts and endophthalmitis.
- Fast medical intervention post-injury can reduce the risk of complications like endophthalmitis, highlighting the need for better awareness and strategies to mitigate injury severity in young children.

Carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) is a rare condition involving an abnormal communication between the carotid artery and the cavernous sinus. We present a unique case of posttraumatic unilateral CCF initially misdiagnosed as a corneal melt with iris prolapse and orbital cellulitis. The patient, a 25-year-old male, experienced swelling, bleeding, and sudden vision loss in the affected eye following a fall.

Article Synopsis
- Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is prevalent among women post-birth, affecting 40-60%, and often involves issues that can't be corrected without addressing connected defects like perineal body incompetency.
- A clinical trial will involve 310 women, dividing them into two groups: one receiving standard procedures and the other receiving those plus perineoplasty.
- The study aims to determine if adding perineoplasty improves the outcomes of pelvic organ prolapse surgery, as past research hasn't conclusively shown its effectiveness in preventing recurrence.
