Fahr's Syndrome is characterized by the presence of intracerebral, bilateral and symmetrical calcifications located in bilateral basal ganglia, thalamus, and cerebellum. The etiology is not exactly known. The authors reported a very rare case who had Fahr's Syndrome and intracerebral aneurysms simultaneously. The patient was female and presented with headache. Her examinations revealed aneurysm...

Endovascular treatments of ophthalmic segment aneurysms are commonly used but visual outcomes remain a concern. We performed a retrospective review of patients with carotid-ophthalmic aneurysms treated with flow diversion from June 2009 to June 2015. The following outcomes were studied through chart review: visual outcomes, complications, postoperative stroke and intraparenchymal hemorrhage, an...

BACKGROUND The ophthalmic artery Doppler waveform (OADW) is thought to correlate with severity of systemic atherosclerosis. The goal of the present study was to evaluate risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in newborns small for gestational age (SGA) and appropriate for gestational age (AGA). METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 15 SGA and 26 AGA newborns were enrolled in the study. OADW was compar...

Duke-Elder (1926) rightly pointed out that "There is no question in the whole of ophthalmology more important and fundamental than the vascular pressures of the eye". The ophthalmic artery pressure (OAP) has been measured almost invariably by ophthalmodynamometry or other methods based on the same principle, and the results obtained have shown very wide variation (Duke-Elder, 1926; Koch, 1945)....

Autologous fat injection is a common aesthetic procedure for soft-tissue augmentation of the face. Although this procedure is generally regarded as safe, several patients have experienced acute visual loss or cerebral infarction after these injections. We describe a case of internal and external carotid artery fat embolism that occurred following injection of autologous fat into the face. It ap...

Introduction: Direct intra-ophthalmic artery infusion of chemotherapy has emerged as a front-line treatment modality for both early and advanced forms of retinoblastoma. The procedure has become common practice for neurointerventionalists at institutions with major ophthalmology centers. We present a case series of patients who manifest an autonomic reaction of acute hypoxemia, hypocapnia, hypo...
