[Glaucoma attacks in Weill-Marchesani syndrome].

Presented is a case of Weill-Marchesani syndrome complicated by acute attacks not responding to conservative treatment. The authors discuss a correct procedure in these cases and indications for a surgical intervention.

[Vision disorders as the first symptom of cerebrovascular insufficiencycaused by the changes in the carotid arteries. Studies using the transcranial Doppler ultrasonic apparatus TC2-64B].

Investigations were carried out in 25 patients with carotid arteries changes. A 2 MHz head was used. Direction of the flow, the average speed and index of pulsation were determined. The results were compared with examinations in 13 healthy subjects. Disturbances of vision were shown by 11 patients (44 p.c.). A normal direction of blood perfusion was observed in 8 arteries (25 p.c.), a reversed one in 22 (69 p.c.), in 2 patients no Doppler's signal could be obtained. In arteries with a reversal flow of blood the authors observed the maximal mean speed and the lowest pulsation index. In neither case did the ophthalmological examinations reveal any embolic material. It seems that visual disturbances in patients with carotid arteries changes may be caused by a change of direction of the blood flow from a normal to a reversed one.

Computer data processing in the examination of retinal vessels in essential hypertension and atherosclerosis.

The mean retinal venoarterial width ratio in 100 healthy subjects was measured with a PZO stereoscopic microscope equipped with a calibrated ocular and with an automatic digital image transformer coupled with an ODRA 1204 computer. The mean value was estimated as equal to 1.21 with an SD of 0.071. The same study was performed in 75 atherosclerotic patients and 75 patients with essential hypertension. In the first group the mean retinal venoarterial width ratio amounted to 1.51 (SD 0.054), while in the second one it was equal to 1.53 (SD 0.079).
