Intra-ocular tuberculosis associated with a penetrating injury. A case report.

A case of histologically proven intra-ocular tuberculosis is described. The condition was preceded by penetrating trauma, and no evidence of systemic tuberculosis other than a positive Mantoux test was found. Numerous acid-fast bacilli were seen in pathological sections of the eye. We suspect that a tuberculosis bacillaemia from an undetected healed focus coincided with the trauma and thereby produced intra-ocular tuberculosis.

Ceftazidime and cefamandole in the treatment of pneumonia.

Fifty-nine community-acquired pneumonias were treated in a randomized double blind trial with cefamandole or ceftazidime. A prospective scoring system was used to define severity. This made use of basic clinical data, associated diseases, white blood count, blood gases and chest radiographs. There were no serious side-effects from the drugs. There were two deaths and six failed treatment. The scoring system which defined an 'ill group' showed as good a response of these ill patients to the new cephalosporin, ceftazidime as to cefamandole.

Disseminated ascariasis: a case report.

A very unusual case of ascariasis is reported. There was massive migration of worms from the small bowel to the liver, and probably thence to the heart and lungs, where adult worms were demonstrated. The cause of death was pulmonary embolism, adult worms blocking the main pulmonary arteries with superimposed thrombosis. This is believed to be unique.
