ABSTRACT

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis is a debilitating condition. It involves the mouth opening, dentofacial deformity, diet problem, and quality of life. When it occurs in a child, it can have devastating effects on the future growth and development of the jaws and teeth. Furthermore, in many cases it has a profoundly negative influence on the psychosocial development of the patient, because of the obvious facial deformity, which worsens with growth. TMJ ankylosis results in a limitation of the mouth opening. This disorder can result in an array of problems with diet, facial deformity, and poor oral hygiene. Three main surgical modalities described in the literature for its management are gap arthroplasty, interpositional arthroplasty and total joint replacement. Recurrence remains the main problem after surgery. Aggressive resection and intensive postoperative physiotherapy are recommended to prevent re-ankylosis.

ABSTRACT

Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes are a rare group of inherited connective tissue disorders of defective collagen synthesis. They predominantly involve the skin, joints and vessels. Ocular involvement in the form of blue sclera, microcornea and susceptibility to trauma is a common feature of EDS type VI. A minor ocular trauma in these patients can cause globe rupture. We herein report simple and successful management of a case of traumatic subconjunctival dislocation of lens in a patient of EDS type VI.

ABSTRACT

Silicone oil adherence to silicone IOLs after silicone oil removal is a known complication in pseudophakic patients. Droplet removal is difficult and may require IOL exchange. We describe two cases in which silicone oil droplets were observed early in the postoperative period in PMMA pseudophakic eyes and disappeared during silicone oil-fluid exchange--a phenomenon that has not been reported earlier in human PMMA pseudophakic eyes.
