Article Synopsis
- A case study discusses the treatment of unilateral macular edema in a 16-year-old boy with Wyburn-Mason syndrome, using Bevacizumab and Aflibercept.
- After an initial treatment with Bevacizumab proved ineffective, the patient showed significant improvement with Aflibercept after three monthly injections.
- The study suggests that Aflibercept may be a safe and effective alternative for managing macular edema resulting from retinal arteriovenous malformations.

Purpose: To report a case of neovascular glaucoma in an 8-year-old male, secondary to a racemose hemangioma without associated intracranial arteriovenous malformation, highlighting the challenges in management and novel findings on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
Observations: An 8-year-old male initially presented with pain, redness, and blurred vision in the right eye. The patient was diagnosed with secondary neovascular glaucoma due to a racemose hemangioma.

Background: Neurocysticercosis is a parasitic infection of the central nervous system caused by the helminth Taenia solium. Racemose neurocysticercosis is a rare form of the disease that specifically involves cerebrospinal fluid-filled spaces in the brain and carries a high rate of complications and mortality.
Observations: This report describes the case of a 37-year-old man who developed headaches and nausea, which were found to be secondary to racemose neurocysticercosis.

Department of Radiology, Shinshu University School of Medicine, 3-1-1 Asahi, Matsumoto, Nagano 390-8621, Japan.
Article Synopsis
- Primary racemose hemangioma of the bronchial artery (RHBA) is a rare congenital condition involving enlarged bronchial arteries that may form abnormal connections with other blood vessels.
- A case study reports successful balloon-assisted embolization for a 57-year-old asymptomatic woman with RHBA, utilizing a specialized catheter system to precisely deliver a treatment mixture to the affected areas.
- This method is preferred to prevent the risk of artery rupture caused by the dilated vessels, effectively guiding treatment while controlling blood flow.
