1/17. Optic disc haemorrhages in posterior vitreous detachment.Posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) is a common clinical entity but is not often associated with a significant ocular disorder. Optic disc haemorrhages are rarely associated with a PVD and are more commonly associated with other local or systemic disease. The symptoms of a PVD, combined with a careful examination of the vitreoretinal interface allows a confident diagnosis of secondary disc haemorrhage to be made. Two cases of acute symptomatic PVD complicated by disc haemorrhage are presented.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = haemorrhage (Clic here for more details about this article) |

3/17. Clastogen-induced fragility may differentiate pancytopenia of congenital dyskeratosis from Fanconi anaemia.A male infant is reported with congenital dyskeratosis and pancytopenia Zinsser-Engman-Cole. The bone marrow pathology showed similarities to Fanconi anaemia. Ophthalmological complications were vitreous haemorrhage, haemorrhagic cataracta complicata and glaucoma. Spontaneous and diepoxybutane-induced chromosomal fragility was within the range of normal cells but was elevated through induction with 4-nitroquinoline-oxide. These findings are contrasted with those of Fanconi anaemia.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.14285714285714keywords = haemorrhage (Clic here for more details about this article) |
4/17. Ophthalmological findings in AIDS. A case report.Ophthalmological findings in AIDS include retinal cotton-wool spots, retinal haemorrhages, cytomegalovirus retinitis, conjunctival manifestations of Kaposi's sarcoma, and cranial nerve palsy. About 75% of patients with AIDS have ophthalmological abnormalities. All patients with AIDS, as well as those at high risk who have any ocular symptoms, should have a thorough ophthalmological evaluation. A case study is presented.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.14285714285714keywords = haemorrhage (Clic here for more details about this article) |
5/17. Ocular and ocular motor aspects of primary thalamic haemorrhage.As part of a correlative study of the neuro-ophthalmological abnormalities in thalamic haemorrhage, we report preliminary findings in six patients with this condition diagnosed by clinical and CT brain examinations. Five patients were middle-aged and hypertensive. Two had Horner's syndrome, and three anisocoria. Three patients had prominent mesencephalic dysfunction. There was pathological confirmation of the lesion in one case. The pathogenesis of the signs of midbrain disturbance in these patients is uncertain, but may comprise pressure, traction or hypoxia, separately or in combination. There was no positive correlation between the estimated size of the demonstrated haemorrhage and the severity of the neuro-ophthalmological abnormality.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.85714285714286keywords = haemorrhage (Clic here for more details about this article) |
6/17. Racemose haemangioma of the retina. Report of three cases with long term follow-up.Racemose haegiomas of the retina are rare developmental anomalies. The basic lesion is an abnormal arterio-venous communication. Three new cases with long term follow-up are presented. In two of the cases the first symptom was loss of vision due to retinal and vitreous haemorrhage. In the third case gradual reduction of vision was due to vascular leakage into the macular area. The recent literature is reviewed and the association to midbrain haemangiomas discussed. The ophthalmological differential diagnosis, the prognosis and the present status in treatment is presented.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.14285714285714keywords = haemorrhage (Clic here for more details about this article) |
7/17. Cavernous haemangioma of the retina.Seven cases of retinal cavernous haemangioma are presented. Three cases have been followed for more than 6 years, and three cases between 1 and 2 years. Six cases had no eye symptoms related to the vascular tumour, while in one case vitreous haemorrhage occurred on two occasions. On both these occasions full vision was regained. None of the vascular tumours were treated. Two patients had grand mal seizures. They also had convulsive disease in the family history. In three cases family members of two generations were found to have normal eyes on examination.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.14285714285714keywords = haemorrhage (Clic here for more details about this article) |
8/17. Unusual clinical and histopathological findings in ocular sarcoidosis.A 37-year-old Caucasian woman presented with a blind left eye and granulomatous panuveitis in the right eye. There was a subretinal neovascular membrane with haemorrhage beneath the macula and widespread subretinal lesions that were interpreted as choroidal granulomas in the right eye. A chest x-ray that showed diffuse pulmonary fibrosis without hilar lymphadenopathy was the only contributory clinical finding. Systemic and subconjunctival steroids and photocoagulation to the right macula brought about temporary remission. The painful left eye was enucleated. Histopathological examination revealed diffuse, noncaseating granulomas in the iris and ciliary body, retina, choroid, optic nerve, sclera and scleral emissaria, and inferior oblique muscle. A preretinal membrane was studied by electron microscopy. It was composed of a collagenous matrix containing fibroblasts and fibrous astrocytes. Some vessels, surrounded by a multilaminar basement membrane, revealed many features of normal retinal vasculature. Others were lined by markedly attenuated endothelial cells with occasional "open' junctions and fenestrations.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.14285714285714keywords = haemorrhage (Clic here for more details about this article) |
9/17. Bilateral nodular sarcoid choroiditis with vitreous haemorrhage.A 21-year-old black man with presumed systemic sarcoidosis had bilateral choroidal nodules, unilateral retinal neovascularisation and vitreous haemorrhage, and non-caseating granulomas on percutaneous liver biopsy. The choroidal nodules were serially documented by fundus photography and fluorescein angiography over a 22-month period. fluorescein angiography was more accurate than ophthalmoscopy in demonstrating choroidal inflammation. The choroidal nodules resolved after systemic corticosteroid therapy. A vitreous haemorrhage occurred probably secondary to neovascularisation related to occlusion of an inferotemporal branch vein. The non-resolving vitreous haemorrhage and associated traction retinal detachment were treated with vitrectomy and membrane sectioning.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = haemorrhage (Clic here for more details about this article) |
10/17. Ophthalmological findings in nephropathia epidemica in Lapland.We report ophthalmological findings in 15 cases of nephropathia epidemica. The patients, 13 men and 2 women, were 20 to 62 (mean 30) years of age. The onset of the disease was characterized by high fever, nausea, headache, abdominal pain, backache, somnolence, red throat, proteinuria, and oliguria. The symptoms subsided rapidly during the polyuria stage. Transitory myopia occurred in 8 patients (53%). Conjunctival injection and haemorrhages were seen in 3 patients (20%). One patient had acute glaucoma with oedema in the cornea and shallowing of the anterior chamber, with subsequent anterior uveitis and haemorrhages in the ocular fundus, and another patients had acute glaucoma. Three patients had photophobia which occurred in 2 patients without any glaucoma or anterior uveitis.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.28571428571429keywords = haemorrhage (Clic here for more details about this article) |
