Anti- N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is a potentially fatal neurologic syndrome in which patients present with spectrum of central nervous system deficits. Sixty percent the cases can be attributed to presence tumors, most often ovarian teratomas. This report examines 6 pediatric who presented deficits associated such tumors. These illustrate perplexing phenomenon, where benign teratomas could have possible association anti-NMDAR encephalitis. The purpose this study...
Neurothekeomas (NTKs) are benign cutaneous neoplasms of fibrohistiocytic origin and most commonly occur in the head, neck, upper extremities. Traditionally, NTK nerve sheath myxoma (NSM) were classified as subtypes a single neoplasm with common histogenesis, but recently immunostaining has demonstrated that lesions likely distinct cellular origin. Rarely, NTKs have been reported to ocular adnexa, present case 39-year-old female is first describe originating cornea mimicking Salzmann's...
Parasitic infections of the central nervous system (CNS) occur mostly in underdeveloped regions world. Neurocysticercosis (NC) occurs when larval form T. solium tapeworm invades CNS. Spinal cysticercosis is an extremely rare type NC and cyst occupies subarachnoid space spinal column. Previous cases have been successfully treated through both surgical medical means. The current case describes symptoms, diagnosis, treatment a patient with this uncommon manifestation neurocysticercosis.
Purpose: To estimate the economic effects of implementing a universal screening and treatment program for retinopathy prematurity (ROP) in Philippines with Economic Model Retinopathy Prematurity (EcROP). Methods: The EcROP is cost-effectiveness, cost-benefit, cost-utility analysis. Fifty parents legally blind individuals (aged 3 to 28 years) from three schools were interviewed societal burden raising child. A decision tree analytic model, deterministic probabilistic sensitivity analysis, was...

Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) can be diagnosed using a variety of histological and immunohistochemical methods stains. Because the nature condition need for rapid diagnostic confirmation, those with high accuracy fast turnaround times are preferred. The authors this paper have used acetylcholinesterase (AChE) immunohistochemistry in conjunction standard H&E order to optimize accuracy, present modified AChE method (MRAM) that has been successfully utilized over 20 years. also list 30 different...
Abstract: Purpose: To present the early post-operative evolution of retained subretinal perfluoro- n -octane (PFO) as captured on OCT. Methods: Case report a patient. Results: A 58-year-old woman was noted to have PFO after undergoing autologous retinal graft for macular hole closure under tamponade. Serial OCT identified first postoperative day and demonstrates progressive consolidation encapsulation bubble by surrounding outer retina. Conclusion: Subretinal is usually seen several weeks in...

Computed tomography imaging an acute stroke left lateral geniculate body. few months later, automated perimetry characteristic changes associated this lesion. In report, anatomy, pathophysiology, clinical findings, previously reported etiologies body lesions are reviewed.
