The aim of this study was to assess visual and structural outcomes after laser photocoagulation and transscleral cryotherapy for threshold retinopathy of prematurity after 10 years
Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To assess visual and structural outcomes after laser photocoagulation and transscleral cryotherapy for threshold retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) after 10 years. DESIGN: Extended follow-up of a randomized controlled clinical trial. PARTICIPANTS: One hundred eighteen eyes from 66 patients were randomly assigned to receive either cryotherapy or laser photocoagulation for more...

This study classified cases of the spectrum of Coats' disease as subtypes of idiopathic retinal telangiectasis with exudation
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An increasing variety of eponymous terms have been used to describe atypical cases of Coats' disease. A group of typical cases of Coats' disease and other cases of differing severity were classified as one of four subtypes of idiopathic retinal telangiectasis with exudation and compared with regard to clinical outcome. METHODS: In a retrospective clinical review patients with more...

This study examined peripheral visual field in premature children who received diode laser photocoagulation for threshold retinopathy of prematurity and in a comparison group with subthreshold ROP that had regressed spontaneously without laser treatment
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To assess the peripheral visual field in premature children who received diode laser photocoagulation for threshold retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and in a comparison group with subthreshold ROP that had regressed spontaneously without laser treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eleven patients (18 eyes) were treated with laser, and nine patients (16 eyes) with subthreshold more...

The aim of this study was to investigate the long term functional and structural outcomes of premature babies who received diode laser photocoagulation for threshold retinopathy of prematurity
Abstract:
AIMS: To assess the long term functional and structural outcomes of premature babies who received diode laser photocoagulation for threshold retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). METHODS: 25 patients (43 eyes) treated with laser were recalled for assessment at a mean follow up of 11 years. A further seven patients (14 eyes) with subthreshold ROP, which had regressed spontaneously without more...

The aim of the study was to assess the long-term refractive and biometric outcomes of diode laser-treated eyes in threshold retinopathy of prematurity
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To assess the long-term refractive and biometric outcomes of diode laser-treated eyes in threshold retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). METHODS: Cycloplegic autorefraction and biometry (Zeiss IOLMaster) were performed, at a mean follow-up of 11 years, on 16 laser-treated eyes with threshold ROP and 9 comparison eyes with subthreshold untreated ROP. RESULTS: The laser-treated eyes more...

This study determined the feasibility and efficacy of morphine sedation/analgesia in the laser treatment of retinopathy of prematurity
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To determine the feasibility and efficacy of morphine sedation/analgesia in the laser treatment of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). METHODS: A retrospective study was carried out on all infants who underwent laser treatment for ROP over a 7 year period. Morphine infusion commenced 6 hrs prior to treatment at a rate of 10 microg/kg/hr. This rate increased to 20 microg/kg/hr at more...

This case report discusses the authors experience with ultrasound (US)-guided aspiration and injection of a congenital splenic cyst
Abstract:
Congenital splenic cysts are a rare entity. They are more frequent in children and young adults. They are true cysts, lined by epithelium with a typical trabeculation. Aspiration and injection with antibiotics (minocycline-tetracycline) or pure alcohol has been reported sparsely with variable results. The purpose of this case study is to report our experience with ultrasound (US)-guided more...
