[Ophthalmologic manifestations of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in central Africa].

In central Africa, the authors have performed an ophthalmological examination of 77 adult patients (18-55 years) with AIDS: 33.7% had ocular abnormalities. Frequent manifestations included cotton-wool patches and retinal hemorrhages, while lacrymal hyposecretion, palpebral and conjunctival kaposi sarcoma, ocular palsy, ptosis, herpes zoster, papillar oedema, cytomegalovirus retinitis and periphlebitis were less frequent. The authors underline the necessity to perform an ocular examination for each patient with AIDS.

[The perimetric score in Bjerrum's area].

The authors have examined a protocole in automatic perimetry. On glaucoma they have measured, with different instruments, deficits in visual fields in Bjerrum's area. The perimetric score gives them a numeric data which determines rapidly the patient's state. This data may be used on graphics.

Glaucoma↗

[Orbital and ocular tumors in the Republic of Mali].

Analysing 82 cases of oculo-orbital tumours in Malian patients, the authors find the classical features characterizing ocular carcinoma in Africa, i.e. early arising, development, late request for treatment. They stress on the age of the patients at the occasion of the first request for treatment in case of retinoblastoma, and notice the special frequency of squamous cell carcinoma with conjunctival or limbic localization.

[Role of eye manifestations in chlamydioses].

Following an up-to-date bacteriological resume, are recalled the most important clinical manifestations presently attributed to C. trachomatis: general manifestations (pulmonary, articular, venereal, congenital, viscereal and others still under discussion); ocular manifestations (trachoma, inclusion conjunctivitis of newborn infants or adults, other ocular affections still under discussion). The main theories are exposed, which try to explain some epidemiological links between all these manifestations.

[Evaluation of the traditionnal Arabic technique of couching in the treatment of cataract in Mali (author's transl)].

Study of 52 cases of empiric treatment of cataract by couching. This technique, still much used in african traditionnal medicine, is first described and then the results are considered (69 globes and 52 patients): -- total or practical blindness: 55 globes: keenness of sight: from 1/10 to 2/10: 2 globes, above 3/10; 12 globes (5 globes out of these 12 have been controlled after a delay above 2 years). -- Hypotonus: 22 globes Normotonus: 26 globes (8 out of these 26 with an excavated papillar atrophy) Hypertonus: 21 globes.
