RESUMO
Neovascular glaucoma (NVG) also called as 90-day glaucoma, is a potentially devastating sequela of seriousunderlying ocular and/or systemic diseases. Anterior segment neovascularization involving the iris, the angle orboth is accompanied by the formation of a fibrovascular membrane that obstructs the aqueous outflow throughthe trabecular meshwork and results in rise of IOP. Here we present a case of a fifty seven year old male whopresented with diminution of vision in left eye since 45 days associated with pain and redness L/E since 15 days.On examination visual acquity of R/E was 6/6,N6 and in L/E patient denied perception of light. Our case presentedwith almost all features suggestive of NVG except that of rubeosis iridis which makes it unique, as to the best ofour knowledge this has been very rarely reported anywhere in literature before.
RESUMO
The study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of cyclophosphamide in primary localised cutaneous amyloidosis. Thirty-six patients of primary localised cutaneous amyloidosis were treated with cyclophosphamide 50 mg. tablets orally daily for a period of six months. Most of the patients following the therapy showed marked improvement in respect of itching, pigmentation and sizes of the popular lesions. Side effects of cyclophosphamide were very low.
RESUMO
Pseudoaneurysms of the hepatic or gastroduodenal arteries may cause Haemobilia. Mitral valve prolapse associated with mycotic pseudoaneurysm of cerebral and extracerebral arteries have been reported. We report a case of gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm presenting as haemobilia. The patient was successfully treated with indigenously fabricated steel coil embolization followed by surgery.
