1/4. Unilateral streaked ovary syndrome. Slotnick-Goldfarbs syndrome.

    A case of unilateral streaked ovary (Slotnick-Goldfarb's syndrome) is reported and documented with hormonal, chromosomal, laparoscopic, and histologic studied. It is postulated that viral oophoritis associated with mumps might explain the coexistence of a streaked ovary of a congenital origin with a hypoplastic ovary, tbat would be the expression of a factor acting in postnatal life.

2/4. Perilesional linear atrophic streaks associated with intralesional corticosteroid injections in a psoriatic plaque.

    Perilymphatic atrophy can be a complication of intralesional corticosteroid injections given for the treatment of conditions such as psoriasis, alopecia areata, and keloids, and intraarticular corticosteroid injections given in diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. It may become manifest as perilesional linear, depigmented, atrophic streaks, which are usually most prominent in patients with dark-colored skin.

3/4. Evolution of angioid streaks.

    angioid streaks of the fundus are not apparent at birth. In order to study their evolution, we examined in a retrospective manner the fundus pictures of 111 subjects with angioid streaks. The earliest form of angioid streaks became apparent at age 8 with findings of narrow short radial discontinuous hypopigmented streaks. Thereafter angioid streaks enlarged in length and width. The end-stage was disciform macular degeneration, helicoid peripapillary atrophy, or diffuse choroidal sclerosis with obscuration of the angioid streaks. We conclude that angioid streaks represent a dynamic manifestation of an underlying retinochoroidal degenerative process.

4/4. indocyanine green angiography in angioid streaks.

    PURPOSE: To present the indocyanine green angiographic features of angioid streaks. methods: The angiographic findings of five typical cases, three cases of idiopathic angioid streaks and two pseudoxanthoma elasticum patients, are reported. RESULTS: In most cases angioid streaks are hyperfluorescent in the late venous and late phase of the indocyanine green angiogram. Within areas of chorioretinal atrophy they are not visualized. The 'peau d'orange' appearance is much better visualized by indocyanine green angiography than by fluorescein angiography. indocyanine green angiography further characterizes choroidal neovascularization, which is the major complication of angioid streaks. CONCLUSION: indocyanine green angiography contributes to the visualization of alterations in Bruch's membrane such as angioid streaks and the 'peau d'orange' appearance.
