Abstract A series of 15 patients with a clinical diagnosis of pituitary apoplexy is reviewed. Clinical features are highlighted, with stress on the defects of visual function and ocular motility, and the associated endocrine abnormalities are described. Potential diagnostic errors and their significance are considered. The incidence of this complication in a large series of pituitary adenoma patients is measured, and the radiological and pathological findings are recorded. The results of treatment by surgery and/or radiotherapy and/or bromocriptine are assessed, particularly in relation to visual consequences, and compared with previous reports in the literature, which are reviewed.

Symptoms And Signs

We review the concept of endogenous depression historically and undertake quantitative analyses of representative factor analytic studies. We also report an empirical study, isolating symptoms and signs associated with a clinical diagnosis of psychotic/endogenous depression, made by a large number of clinical raters assessing 300 depressives. The quantitative analyses and the study of practising psychiatrists agreed in delineating depressive type and together suggest a more restricted construct of endogenous and psychotic depression than has been held historically. Key clinical features isolated were severity, retardation, delusions and paranoid features, non-reactivity and non-variability in mood, while vegetative features appeared to lack relevance.

Prompt Diagnosis

Orbital cellulitis is a significant infection that affects the ocular adnexal and associated orbital tissues. It is often a clinical diagnosis and can present as an ophthalmological emergency. The soft tissues posterior to the orbital septum are involved. Thus, the infection is deep and requires aggressive intervention compared with the more superficial infection of pre-septal cellulitis. Failure of prompt diagnosis and early treatment can lead to loss of vision and can be potentially life-threatening. The article discusses the clinical features, risk factors and management of orbital cellulitis. It provides an overview of the important differentials to consider and resultant complications that can occur.
