Abstract
An 8-month-old girl referred from her pediatrician with a diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) presented with an enlarged cloudy cornea of the left eye and a swollen left side of the face. Her left eye had intraocular pressure (IOP) of 21 mm Hg, corneal diameter of 16 mm, ectropion uvea, cup:disk ratio of 0.9, axial length of 28.06 mm, and S-shaped upper lid deformity. Uneventful combined trabeculotomy-trabeculectomy with mitomycin C was performed. On postoperative day 1, there was a new total hyphema that persisted for 2 weeks. An anterior chamber washout was performed, revealing the source of bleeding to be a persistent tunica vasculosa lentis along the zonules of the lens. Viscotamponade was performed, and the corneal wounds were closed, with the ocular tension slightly elevated. Bleeding did not recur for the following 5 months, and IOP was controlled until final follow-up.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
