Transscleral drainage of subretinal/suprachoroidal silicone oil.
Silicone oil migration into the subretinal space following vitreoretinal surgery may occur in complex cases of retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy. This complication prevents achievement of the primary goal (ie, to attach the retina) and fails to provide the internal tamponade, leading to a permanent decrease in visual acuity. Successful and complete removal of the subretina...
متن کاملUnusual location of a shunt tube in the basal subarachnoid space.
The authors observed flow-void in a shunt tube in the basal cisterns of a 28-year-old man who had previously undergone surgery for a craniopharyngioma. They describe the appearance of a subarachnoid shunt catheter in the basal cisterns to caution against misinterpreting it as an aberrant vessel.
متن کاملPreventing Silicone Tube Extrusion after Nasolacrimal Duct Intubation in Children
Herein we report our experience with a simple technique for reducing the rate of silicone tube extrusion after nasolacrimal duct (NLD) intubation for congenital NLD obstruction. Medical records of children older than 2 years, with or without history of failed probing, who had undergone NLD intubation with a Crawford silicone tube over a period of 4 years were reviewed. In all subjects, one end ...
متن کاملTrabeculectomy with internal tube shunt: a novel glaucoma surgery.
PURPOSE To describe a pilot study that evaluates the efficacy and mechanism of action of a new glaucoma operation, trabeculectomy with internal tube shunt. METHODS Twenty-three patients underwent the new operation in one eye for open angle glaucoma. Under a scleral flap, a deep sclerectomy was performed, resulting in an intrascleral lake. Laterally, on both sides, a small silicone tube was pl...
متن کاملAspergillus Growth within Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt Tube
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt failure is commonly associated with infection or mechanical obstruction of the shunt system. A 4-year-old male child who had undergone multiple shunt revisions at another hospital for congenital hydrocephalus and later for shunt obstruction, presented with exposed shunt at the supraclavicular region. Shunt revision was performed. The CSF culture showed no growth;...
