To review long time treatment results in patients with small or medium sized choroidal melanoma who underwent surgical tumor endoresection as a primary when plaque radiotherapy was unable and declined enucleation.Patients were evaluated for best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), biomicroscopy, indirect ophthalmoscopy, retinography ultrasound well the usual systemic workup. Study inclusion required absence of scleral invasion metastasis an anterior margin not exceeding pars plana ciliary body....
Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD) in developing countries has been at the centre of negotiations on a renewed international climate regime. Developing have made it clear that their ability to engage REDD activities would depend obtaining sufficient stable funding. Two alternative financing options are examined find possible ways forward: through future compliance market non-offset fund. First, global demand for hypothetical credits is estimated. The be...
Malignant lesions of the eyelid are most common eye cancers. Although rarely lethal, late diagnosis can lead to serious visual morbidity. Definitive neoplastic is pathological. Indications and types in a single high-volume ophthalmic reference center Sao Paulo, Brazil, were analyzed.The surgical pathological reports patients who underwent removal procedures between January 2000 December 2012 retrieved from electronic database Ophthalmology Department retrospectively reviewed.

The transition towards digital pathology and an extensive selection of video conferencing platforms have helped provide continuity to education even during the COVID-19 pandemic. Innovative approaches for education, will likely persist beyond pandemic, as they powerful didactic potential. While there is a wide software use educational tools, environment access all resources with ease clearly lacking. In this technical note, we highlight our customized applications built using low-code...
To compare the primary anatomical outcome of pars plana vitrectomy, 360° peripheral endolaser, and 15% octafluoropropane C3F8 gas tamponade in patients with uncomplicated rhegmatogenous detachment inferior retinal breaks, after 24-h postoperative prone positioning to similar 1 week positioning.Records 5500 who underwent vitrectomy between 2008 2015 were retrieved. Collected data included age, gender, number quadrants macula status on presentation (attached or detached), phakic (phakic,...
Imatinib mesylate (IM) is a compound that inhibits both BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase and c-kit receptors. Tyrosine kinases are important in cellular signaling mediate major processes such as proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, attachment, migration. Twenty-six albino rabbits were injected with 1 × 10(6) human uveal melanoma (UM) cells (92.1) into the suprachoroidal space. Animals immunosuppressed (cyclosporin A) over course of 12-week experiment divided two groups (n = 13). The...

To present a case of stellate nonhereditary idiopathic foveomacular retinoschisis (SNIFR) resolution associated with vitreomacular adherence (VMA) release and propose potential contributing association between SNIFR interactions.A 67-year-old female patient was diagnosed followed for in OD spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) scans at presentation subsequent visits 3, 6, 16 22 months. VMA remained unchanged on SD-OCT during the first 6 months follow-up. At 16-month follow-up...
Introduction: The mechanisms involved in the virulence and recurrences of ocular toxoplasmosis are poorly understood. New detection methods necessary to diagnose atypical cases better understand recurrences. A sensitive method identify Toxoplasma gondii peripheral blood patients is necessary. Purpose: To detect presence T. human using immunohistochemistry PCR. Methods: Yellow fluorescent protein RH strain was cultured on fibroblast monolayer for 5 weeks. Cytospins whole smears from spiked...
Purpose: To identify age groups or activities at risk for ocular injuries to provide parents, sports teams, schools, and hospitals with the appropriate tools prevention strategies. Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted of all trauma-related cases from 2013 2015 data were obtained use an electronic medical record. All patients younger than 18 years who presented ophthalmology clinic traumatic included. Results: total 409 met inclusion criteria included in this study. The mean...
