Spontaneous resolution and bone regeneration in hemophilic pseudotumor: A rare case report and literature review.

Aim: Hemophilic pseudotumor (HP) is a very rare complication of hemophilia seen in only 1-2% of the cases. Although it is much more common in long bones, pelvis and small bones of hands and feet and very rarely involving jaw bones.

Method And Result: In the present case, the presence of a rare hemophilic pseudotumor of the mandible with the positive history of Hemophilia B justifies that the history, clinical and radiological examinations were sufficient to arrive at conclusive diagnosis precluding invasive diagnostic procedures such as biopsy hence avoiding the risk of hemorrhage, infection, or fistula.

Establishment of a core outcome set for burn care research: development and international consensus.

Objective: To develop a core outcome set for international burn research.

Design: Development and international consensus, from April 2017 to November 2019.

Methods: Candidate outcomes were identified from systematic reviews and stakeholder interviews.

COVID-Associated Sinonasal Mucormycosis: Radiological Pathological Correlation and Prognostic Value of MR Imaging.

 Our aim was to assess the sinonasal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of acute invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (AIFRS) in coronavirus disease (COVID)-associated mucormycosis (CAM) and to correlate these with histopathology and patient outcome in terms of duration of hospital stay and survival at 10 weeks.  Twenty patients with histopathologically confirmed sinonasal CAM underwent MRI (including postcontrast T1-weighted and diffusion-weighted imaging). Histopathological findings (presence of coagulative necrosis, granulomatous reaction, and fungal burden) were recorded and all patients were followed up at 6 and 10 weeks.

Correction of pre-existing astigmatism by on-axis incision size modulation in manual small-incision cataract surgery.

Purpose: To study the effect of wound size modulation on pre-existing astigmatism by on-axis placement of incision in manual small-incision cataract surgery (MSICS).

Methods: In this prospective interventional study conducted at a tertiary care centre, 40 eyes of 40 consecutive senile cataract patients with 1.00-3.

Complications of manual small-incision cataract surgery.

The manual small-incision cataract surgery (MSICS) is instrumental in tackling cataract-induced blindness in developing countries, especially with a sizeable proportion being hard brunescent cataracts. MSICS has a unique set of complications related to wound construction, the creation of the capsular opening, and the technique of nuclear delivery. A poorly constructed sclero-corneal tunnel or a small capsulorhexis hampers the nuclear extraction, and the extensive intracameral maneuvers increase the chances of postoperative corneal edema and iritis.

Evaluating the Quantitative Foveal Avascular Zone and Retino-Choroidal Vessel Density Using Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in a Healthy Indian Population.

Objective: The foveal avascular zone (FAZ) is the round capillary-free zone within the macula and is supplied only by a single-layered parafoveal capillary arcade. This study aimed to evaluate the quantitative FAZ and retino-choroidal vessel density (VD) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in a healthy Indian population.

Methods: This was a cross-sectional observational study that was conducted for evaluating the quantitative FAZ and retino-choroidal VD of 200 eyes of 100 healthy Indian subjects, including 62 males and 38 females (age range 17-50 years) having the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of logMAR 0 (20/20; 6/6) and spherical equivalent refractive error of not more than 1 D.

Central Retinal Vein Occlusion Following the First Dose of COVID Vaccine.

The reports of vascular adverse events in the eye following COVID-19 vaccination are infrequent. We report the case of a healthy male who developed central retinal vein occlusion in his left eye three days following administration of the first dose of Covishield vaccine. As the underlying systemic and ocular risk factors were absent and laboratory investigations were normal, vein occlusion appeared to probably result from the vaccine.

Predictors of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Parameters Following Scleral Buckling Surgery in Primary Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment.

Objective: This study aimed to examine predictors of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) parameters following scleral buckling (SB) surgery for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and to determine the influence of the magnitude of change in qualitative and quantitative parameters on RNFL.

Methods:  In an observational prospective study, 40 subjects who underwent successful retinal reattachment with SB surgery done within one month of RRD were evaluated for the parameters of best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refractive error, intraocular pressure (IOP), axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), angle opening distance (AOD 500 and AOD 750), trabecular iris surface area (TISA 500 and TISA 750), visual fields, and ganglion cell count (GCC) and RNFL before and three months after SB. We additionally noted qualitative factors like extent, location, and type of buckle; phakic status; and grade of proliferative vitreoretinopathy in the affected eye.

Genotype-phenotype spectrum of 130 unrelated Indian families with Mucopolysaccharidosis type II.

MPS II is an X linked recessive lysosomal storage disorder with multi-system involvement and marked molecular heterogeneity. In this study, we explored the clinical and molecular spectrum of 144 Indian patients with MPS II from 130 unrelated families. Clinical information was collected on a predesigned clinical proforma.

Phenotypic and genotypic spectrum of CTSK variants in a cohort of twenty-five Indian patients with pycnodysostosis.

Background: Pycnodysostosis is an autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia with easily recognizable clinical features and marked molecular heterogeneity. In this study, we explored the clinical and molecular spectrum of 25 Indian patients with pycnodysostosis from 20 families.

Methods: Clinical information was collected on a predesigned clinical proforma.

Unintentional Injuries Among Under-five Children in a Rural Area in Delhi.

Objective: To determine the prevalence of unintentional injuries and its associated factors among under-five children in Rural Delhi.

Methods: This community based cross-sectional study was conducted in Pooth Khurd village of Delhi during 2018 among under-five children and their care givers. Primary caregivers of the child in the randomly selected households were interviewed using a semi-structured pretested questionnaire.
