RESUMO
We reviewed the medical records of 201 patients who were admitted between January 1980 and March 1992 with a diagnosis of traumatic hyphema to define risk factors associated with the development of rebleeding. Rebleeding occurred in 18 patients (9.0%), and took place on day 1 to 6 after injury with a maximum occurrence on day 2. A group of 32 patients who were examined more than 24 hours after injury were found to have a rebleeding rate of 18.8% (six of 32 patients). It was higher than the rebleeding rate (6.8%) in patients examined within 24 hours. When the amount of blood is more than 1/3 of anterior chamber at the time of initial examination, rebleeding was shown to occur more frequently. Children had a rebleeding rate similar to adults, and males showed approximately the same rate of rebleeding compared to females. This review suggests that patients examined more than 24 hours after injury and injured severely represent unique population that deserves special consideration.

Septo-optic dysplasia is diagnosed when optic nerve hypoplasia is combined with dysgenesis of the septum pellucidum and nearly two-thirds of them have hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction. A number of these patients have schizencephaly and usually present seizures. The migrational disorders including schizencephaly, lissencephaly, heterotopia and polymicrogyria are a rare group of congenital malformations of the brain Septo-optic dysplasia-schizencephaly complex is frequently associated with endocrinolo gic, ophthalmologic, and neurologic symptoms and signs. We recently experienced a case of septo-optic dysplasia-schizencephaly, who showed severe visual impairment associated nystagmus and bilateral optic nerve hypoplasia agenesis of septum pellucidum with schizencephaly and hypsarrythmia. Because some forms of migrational disorders and septo-optic dysplasia can be inherited, parental counseling is essential for the accurate diagnosis.

Rarely, break in the non-pigmented epithelium in the pars plicata can occur and sometimes develop into retinal detachment. We experienced a case of retinal detachment associated with lens coloboma in 34-year-old male. A break in the non-pigmented epithelium in pars plicata was found with retinal detachment. We treated the break by cryoapplication, scleral buckling and encircling.
