PRESERFLO Microshunt™ versus Non-Penetrating Deep Sclerectomy for Glaucoma Mana...

Purpose: To compare the short-term efficacy and safety of the PRESERFLO™ MicroShunt (PF) versus Non-Penetrating Deep Sclerectomy (NPDS) with Esnoper®. Methods: Retrospective comparative cohort study at a tertiary hospital including 79 eyes from 79 patients submitted to surgery (32 PF implantation, Group 1 and 47 NPDS, Group 2) between January 2022 and August 2023, with one year follow-up. Outcome measures inclu...

Persistent Proinflammatory Cytokine Profile in the Tear Fluid of Stable Keratoc...

Purpose: Keratoconus is traditionally classified as a noninflammatory corneal ectasia, despite growing evidence suggesting an underlying inflammatory component. This study evaluates whether patients with stable keratoconus exhibit persistent inflammatory activity in tear fluid compared to healthy controls. Methods: Cross-sectional case-control study. Keratoconus progression was evaluated using tomographic and c...

Short-Term Refractive and Safety Outcomes of Implantable Collamer Lens Implanta...

INTRODUCTION: To evaluate the short-term visual and refractive outcomes of V4c-V5 implantable collamer lens implantation, and its safety profile in myopia and myopic astigmatism correction. METHODS: Retrospective unicentric observational study of patients with Implantable collamer lens implantation. Main outcome measures at 6 months were safety, efficacy, predictability, endothelial cell count loss, intraocular...

The Added Value of Enhanced Depth Imaging-Optical Coherence Tomography in the M...

Introduction: To analyze the enhanced depth imaging (EDI) - optical coherence tomography (OCT) ability to identify, measure and classify choroidal nevi, and its correlation with high-risk features. Material and Methods: Retrospective observational study of patients with choroidal nevi. Comprehensive eye examinations and multimodal imaging were performed for each nevus, including spectral domain EDI-OCT and B-sc...

A Caso Raro de Quisto do Colédoco Todani Tipo III

Os quistos do colédoco representam alterações raras da árvore biliar e dividem-se em vários subtipos, de acordo com a classificação de Todani, sendo a variante tipo III uma das formas mais raras. Os sintomas estão habitualmente relacionados com complicações, tais como colangite e pancreatite que, por sua vez, são condicionadas por estase biliar, coledocolitíase, inflamação ou sobre-infeção recorrentes. Apresent...

Lung Condensation in Young Adult: A Clinical Case Report

Myofibroblastic inflammatory tumor of the lung is a rare be- nign tumor of unknown etiology. Despite its benign nature is known for its propensity to mimic a malignant process. This entity may mimic most common clinical situations, particu- larly infectious processes, leading to prolonged cycles of antibiotic therapy in the absence of isolation of an agent. It should be suspected in respiratory conditions with ...

Diabetic Choroidopathy: Choroidal Vascular Density and Volume in Diabetic Retin...

Purpose To compare choroidal vascular density (CVD) and volume (CVV) in diabetic eyes and controls, using en face swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). Design Prospective cross-sectional study. Methods Setting: Multicenter. Patient Population: Total of 143 diabetic eyes—27 with no diabetic retinopathy (DR), 47 with nonproliferative DR (NPDR), 51 with NPDR and diabetic macular edema (DME), and 18 w...

Pseudophakic anterior chamber depth measurement in second eye refinement catara...

Purpose: To study the effective lens position concept in second eye refinement (SER) cataract surgery, by relating inter-ocular symmetry of pseudophakic anterior chamber depth (pACD) and SER refractive outcomes. Methods: One hundred and twelve patients were identified as having performed bilateral consecutive cataract surgery. Prediction errors for the first and second eyes were calculated for 3 formulae (Hoffe...
