Recurrent Vitreous Hemorrhage

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can provide insight into the pathophysiological states of ocular tissues such as proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). In this study, differences in miRNA expression in vitreous from PDR patients with and without incidence of recurrent vitreous hemorrhage (RVH) after the initial pars-plana vitrectomy (PPV) were analyzed, with the aim of identifying biomarkers for RVH. Fifty-four consented vitreous samples were analyzed from patients undergoing PPV for PDR, of which eighteen samples underwent a second surgery due to RVH. Ten of the sixty-six expressed miRNAs (miRNAs-19a, -20a, -22, -27a, -29a, -93, -126, -128, -130a, and -150) displayed divergences between the PDR vitreous groups and to the control. A significant increase in the miRNA-19a and -27a expression was determined in PDR patients undergoing PPV as compared to the controls. miRNA-20a and -93 were significantly upregulated in primary PPV vitreous samples of patients afflicted with RVH. Moreover, this observed upregulation was not significant between the non-RVH and control group, thus emphasizing the association with RVH incidence. miRNA-19a and -27a were detected as putative vitreous biomarkers for PDR, and elevated levels of miRNA-20a and -93 in vitreous with RVH suggest their biomarker potential for major PDR complications such as recurrent hemorrhage incidence.

Clinical Signs And Symptoms

ABSTRACT Introduction The diagnosis of traumatic brain injuries is typically based on hemispheric blasts resulting in degrees of unconsciousness and associated cerebral injuries. This case report describes a Vietnam War era setting in which a traumatic blast wave struck the posterior cranium in the region of the foramen magnum, occipital crest, and other skull openings (orbit, oronasal, and ear) and the unique secondary clinical signs and symptoms experienced over time. Materials and Methods This case report describes secondary delayed-onset clinical signs and symptoms consistent with progressive decades-long physical and functional complications. The traumatic blast resulted in brief unconsciousness, decreased vision in left eye, confusion, right sided hemotympanum, deafness, severe tinnitus, severe nasopharynx pain and difficulty swallowing, pain in right posterior and occipital area of the head, and loss of dental amalgams. Subsequent exams revealed progressive hyperacusis, sea sickness, dysdiadochokinesis, diagnosis of 9th and 10th cranial nerve traumatic schwannomas, hyperdense changes to the frontal lobe white matter, progressive tinnitus, chronic vertigo, right-sided high-frequency hearing loss, progressive oculo-gyric crisis of Tumarkin-like seizures, left-sided chronic vitreous hemorrhage, and diminished right hemisphere performance of the brain based on neurophysiological assessment. No post-traumatic stress, depression, or other emotional or psychiatric difficulties were claimed. Conclusion This case report, unique to the English language scientific literature, discusses in detail the secondary signs and symptoms of a foramen magnum and occipital crest focused-associated blast injury.

Purpose Rupture of the sclera occurring during retinal detachment surgery is generally associated with unfavourable anatomic and visual outcomes. Re-operation after a failed scleral buckle procedure and pre-existing scleral thinning are considered the main risk factors for scleral rupture. Case Report We describe the management and the favourable outcome of a case of scleral rupture in a 71-year-old woman during re-operation for retinal detachment. Conclusions We managed this case of scleral rupture in accordance with current indications concerning the anatomical recovery, by scleral suture and patch graft, restoring IOP by gas tamponade. The positive outcome was partly related to the prompt closure of the retinal hole which led to reattachment, and partly to favourable events such as the moderate intensity of vitreous hemorrhage and the lack of any more serious intraoperative and postoperative complications.

Purpose: To report a case of choroideremia characterized by peripheral retinoschisis with vascular abnormalities and vitreous hemorrhage. Observations: A 58-year-old man affected by advanced-stage choroideremia was diagnosed with peripheral retinoschisis in both eyes. Vitreous hemorrhage was present in the right eye with a peculiar clot-like lesion at the periphery. At the 1-year follow-up, the vitreous hemorrhage had reabsorbed and the vascular clot-like lesion in the periphery had almost completely disappeared. Conclusion and importance: We have reported fundoscopic and OCT features of peripheral-acquired retinoschisis with vascular abnormalities in a patient with choroideremia. OCT examination is extremely useful in clinical evaluation of the peripheral retinal alterations in these cases, where the absence of the retinal pigment epithelium and the choriocapillaris pose many diagnostic difficulties.

Iol Exchange

Three pseudophakic patients presented with recurrent, unilateral vitreous hemorrhage, one of which also had uveitis, glaucoma, and hyphema, consistent with “uveitis–glaucoma–hyphema (UGH)-Plus” syndrome. Arcuate transillumination defects secondary to inadvertent placement of 1 intraocular lens (IOL) haptic in the sulcus were identified in each case. The second haptic and optic were located in the capsular bag. The IOLs were all single-piece foldable acrylic lenses with square-edge haptic design. Surgical repositioning of the malpositioned haptic from the sulcus to the retrocapsular space resulted in the resolution of the recurrent vitreous hemorrhage. This series highlights the fact that recurrent vitreous hemorrhage secondary to iris chafing, with or without UGH, may occur in cases where a square-edge IOL haptic is placed in the sulcus. Vitrectomy with repositioning of the malpositioned IOL is a simple alternative to IOL exchange in these cases.
