[Results of peripheral retinoschisis treatment in sex-linked congenital retinoschisis].

Overall study of 20 years of curative and prophylactic peripheral retinoschisis treatment in 60 cases of sex linked congenital retinoschisis. Peripheral retinoschisis was present in 36 out of 120 eyes. Twelve eyes of children under 10 years severely affected, have undergone surgery (8 improvements and 4 aggravations) and 21 cases were photocoagulated (18 stabilizations, 3 aggravations which were subsequently treated by surgery). Six cases were not treated. Aggravations after surgery or photocoagulation have always been observed in early postoperative follow-up period. The above findings bring to light the problems of treatment. An epidemiological study of these 60 patients demonstrates that peripheral retinoschisis into bullous phase is only present under 5 years of age with tendency to regress with age (none reported after age of 50). This study corroborates ad absurdum the results of some authors who think that this type of retinoschisis has a tendency to improve spontaneously, and that indications for prophylactic and curative treatment must be thought of very carefully.

[Eales' syndrome and hypereosinophilia].

Authors report one case of a non typical Eales' disease associated to an hypereosinophily. None etiology was found nosology and physiopathology of Eales' syndrome and Eales' disease are still unclear. Main element of diagnosis is the discovery of a general pathology.

[Anaphylactic shock caused by fluorescein].

Authors report one case of death caused by anaphylactic collapsus after a fluorescein angiography. They make a review of all the complications described and particularly insist about the anaphylactic reactions. They conclude on the modalities of treatment.

[Spontaneous rupture of Bruch's membrane and transient macular hemorrhage in patients with myopia].

18 eyes of 14 pathologic myopia patients with lacker cracks have been studied during a mean follow up of 45 months by initial and final clinical and fluoroangiography evaluation. These lacker cracks happen early in the myopia degeneration evolution in young patients. The evolution is marked by transient coinlike macular hemorrhages without CNM detectable. Prognosis for the retention of central vision after macular hemorrhages resolution is good. It mainly depends of lacker cracks initial location if macular quite wrong, if intramacular, quite right. Development of CNM is an infrequent eventuality but must be systematically research by angio-fluorography after spontaneous macular hemorrhage resolution which usually occurs 4 or 6 weeks later.

[Asteroid hyalitis: an uncommon complication of retinal telangiectasis].

The authors report a case of asteroid hyalosis which required a vitrectomy because of the decreased vision. The vitrectomy places in a prominent position an epi-macular membrane which has been peeling during the procedure and retinal vascular malformations like "telangiectasies" which are the starting point of other complications.

[Aspects of the tilted disk syndrome].

4 cases of tilted disc syndrome are reported. Two were associated with sellar or endocrine pathology, one had a particular aspect of chorioretinal atrophy, and the last had a thrombosis of the central vein of retina. The most commonly aspects of tilted disc syndrome are reported.

Adult↗

[Reticular macular dystrophy and Steinert disease].

We studied the macular lesions of 14 patients with myotonic dystrophy. 4 of them presented signs of reticula dystrophy of the macular pigmentary epithelium. We searched the association with other ocular modifications.

[Primary palpebral localization of a trabecular Merkel cell carcinoma (1 case)].

We report one case of Merkel cell carcinoma. They commonly arise on the eyelids of elderly patients. Others localisations are on the skin of the pelvis. Clinical aspects, histological study, associating morphological aspect, ultra-structural and immuno-histo-chemical studies are characteristics enough to differentiate this tumor others tumors of the skin like cutaneous malignant lymphoma. The origin of this tumor is still discussed, but sure neuro-endocrinal. Possibility of visceral metastases on a small number of cases (6 to 8%) must be consider when treated. Total surgical ablation should be obtained.

[Malignant transformation of a nevus of ota].

The association of naevus of Ota and choroidal melanoma is reported in a 83 years-old monophtalm caucasian man. Because of no tumoral spreading in this monophtalm patient, the tumor is treated by physical technique with iridium disc. In the next months, complications of this physical treatment appeared. The authors remind the clinical aspect of the disease and the different associations, also that the frequency of coming of the main complication of the affection: the choroidal melanoma.

[Descending ocular myopathy--apropos of a case].

Descending ocular myopathy is a rare progressive disease characterized by bilateral ptosis, external ophthalmoplegia and progressive dystrophy of the proximal skeletal muscles. A case of descending ocular myopathy with post-operative corneal ulceration is reported. Mitochondrial abnormalities are found on skeletal muscle biopsy. Nosologic classification of this case is discussed.
