Corneal graft rejection and recurrent anterior uveitis associated with intraocular cilium.

A 60-year-old male patient with pseudophakic bullous keratopathy in his right eye underwent corneal transplantation. Graft rejection occurred and the patient was regrafted 1 year later. The postoperative course was complicated with recurrent anterior uveitis attacks. In his right eye, he had a cilium in the posterior chamber at the five o'clock position between the intraocular lens and iris. The cilium was removed and the patient was free of any anterior uveitis or corneal rejection for 18 months. Eyes harboring corneal transplants and suffering frequent rejection, or chronic recurrent anterior uveitis should be examined carefully for the possible presence of foreign bodies.

[A case of corneal lactoferrin amyloidosis secondary to trichiasis].

PURPOSE: A case of corneal lactoferrin amyloidosis secondary to trichiasis is reported. CASE: A 30-year-old male suffered from trichiasis with an elevated gray whitish lesion just under the center of the cornea in his right eye. The lesion had an irregular surface. METHOD: We excised the corneal lesion, and studied the excised corneal lesion morphologically. RESULT: The deposit observed just under the corneal epithelial layer was positive for Congo red staining, and showed dichroism under polarizing microscopy. The deposit also showed a immunoreactivity against anti-human lactoferrin antibody. CONCLUSION: The morphological study proved that the deposits under the corneal lesion were derived from lactoferrin. Long term injury of the corneal surface by trichiasis may lead to the deposition and structural changes of lactoferrin originating from tears.

[Intraocular cilia with macular pucker: clinicopathologic correlation].

PURPOSE/METHODS: To report the pathological findings in a case of intravitreous cilia with macular pucker. We considered clinical factors to establish treatment. A pars plana vitrectomy and premacular membrane peeling were performed. Surgical samples were removed and studied with PAS, hematoxylin-eosin, Masson's Trichromic and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS/CONCLUSION: The histopathological examination disclosed the presence of cilia partially surrounded by a cuticle layer and internal limiting membrane with a celullarity increase. Surgical extraction is indicated in those cases in which the intraocular cilia are associated with any surgically treatable process or when it produces ocular inflammation or visual disturbance.

Setleis (bitemporal 'forceps marks') syndrome in a German family: evidence for autosomal dominant inheritance.

The Setleis syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by predominantly facial findings, including bitemporal skin changes resembling forceps marks. Autosomal recessive inheritance of this distinct condition has been proposed. We report on a typically affected German boy whose father shows a much milder expression, thus suggesting autosomal dominant inheritance.

Uncommon serious complications in Stevens-Johnson syndrome: a clinical case.

We present an extremely serious clinical case of Stevens-Johnson syndrome, the evolution of which has been followed for 3 years. The etiology was unknown, although it was related with the administration of amoxicillin. We found a type III immunity mechanism involving immune complexes. The serious complications affected the skin, mucosae and internal organs. The present sequelae are: esophageal stenosis, pneumopathy with a 50% deficit of pulmonary perfusion and bilateral trichiasis.
