[The ocular manifestations in the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome].

The ocular manifestations in the infection with the human immunodeficiency virus are mentioned, among which the ischaemic retinal vasculopathy, the presence of dysoric nodules and the retinal vascularity. In addition, the presence of severe ocular manifestation caused by superinfections with cytomegalovirus, Toxoplasma gondii, Candida albicans and Treponema pallidum is reported. Lesions of the anterior pole and of the optic nerve are also described. The necessary prophylaxis and treatment measures are pointed out.

[Unilateral congenital cataract, iridic hypoplasia and macular degenerative lesions].

The present paper reports on the case of an 18-year-old man with congenital cataract and microphthalmos of the left eye, divergent strabismus and sursum vergens. Macular degenerative lesions were also present in the right eye, hypoplasia of the iris in both eyes and fixation nystagmus with equal jerks in both directions. The general physical examination showed congenital atrial septal defect. The morbid cardiac and ocular association plead for rubella embryopathy.

[Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy I and cataract].

The 26-year-old female patient presented Albright I hereditary osteodystrophy and zonular cataract, chronic tetany, hypothyroidism. The affection started since she was 3 year old. In the same family there are other 7 persons with hereditary osteodystrophy, from which one of the patient's brothers has Albright II syndrome. It is proved that the pseudoparathyroidism and the pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism are two clinical manifestations of the same affection. The cataract from Albright syndrome is determined by disturbances of the phosphocalcium metabolism and must be distinguished by other endocrine and congenital forms of cataract. The deficiency can be explained by a disturbance of renal function in the reabsorption of phosphates.
