[Posttraumatic optochiasmic arachnoiditis].

Optochiasmic arachnoiditis is a complex symptomatological ocular and neuroendocrine disease. We present a 32-years-old patient who was hospitalized in Ophthalmological Clinic from Iaşi because a slow visual acuity diminishing, visual field troubles and neurological symptoms which appeared after a cranial contusion. Ophthalmological and neurosurgical exams established "optochiasmic arachnoiditis" diagnosis, which was confirmed peroperator. The exceptional postoperator evolution was, after a while, eclipsed by final functional ocular result.

Lumbar spinal stenosis by postdiscectomy hyperostosis.

The mesenchymal repair process of the connective tissue in the surgical wound following lumbar laminectomy presents three aspects: postoperative epidural scar, heterotopic bone formation in the epidural scar and vertebral hyperostosis around laminectomy. Twelve cases of lumbar spine hyperostosis consecutive to laminectomy, confirmed by x-ray findings and surgery are presented. The main symptom at presentation was a recurrent sciatic neuritis. Lumbo-sacral spine films showed a "bright" focal condensation in the previous surgical. Lamina inferior and superior and the articular facets were hypertrophic. Surgery confirmed the hyperostosis and compressive lumbar spine stenosis or foramen stenosis.
