The incidence of PCO varies widely in the literature, influenced by intraocular lens (IOL) type and patient risk factors. Neodymium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet (YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy is the standard treatment for PCO-related visual impairment. Recurrence of PCO after initial treatment with YAG capsulotomy, though more common in children, is rare in adults. Its underlying pathophysiological mechanisms are similar to that of primary PCO, which includes proliferation, migration, and/or clustering of lens epithelial cells (LECs), with subsequent reclosure of the posterior aperture. Potential risk factors for PCO recurrence that have been speculated through a comprehensive search of the current literature include younger age, female sex, high myopia, diabetes, vitrectomized status, uveitis, low-diopter IOLs, and certain IOL types with higher water content. We present a case of recurrent PCO in a highly myopic 48-year-old male following cataract surgery and implantable collamer lens (ICL) explantation who received a hydrophobic acrylic lens with 4% water content. Surgical techniques that may reduce recurrent PCO occurrence and appropriate postoperative care are emphasized to assist surgeons in their approach to patients at high-risk for this complication.","PeriodicalId":14337,"journal":{"name":"International Medical Case Reports Journal","volume":"17 ","pages":"683-693"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11283270/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141788022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Juvenile Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (JSLE) is a specific diagnosis of SLE in juvenile, characterized by oral ulceration.Purpose: This case report attempts to provide information for oral medicine specialists in managing JSLE patients with hepatosplenomegaly.Case presentation: A 17-year-old female patient was referred from the Pediatrics Department with mouth ulcers accompanied by dry lips and a tendency to bleed. The most concerning lesion was located on the left buccal mucosa, a single ulceration measuring 5x6mm. Multiple ulcerations spread over the upper and lower labial mucosa, with haemorrhagic crusts on the lips. Painful ulceration can lead to difficulties in mouth opening and impaired function in eating and drinking. Central erythema was seen on the palate. Pseudomembranous candidiasis was also seen on the patient's tongue. The hepatosplenomegaly was confirmed by CT scan, with enzyme values of SGPT (386 U/L) and SGOT (504 U/L).Case management: Administration of 0.9% NaCl was instructed to the patient to maintain oral hygiene and help moisturize lips in order to remove haemorrhagic crusts. Administration of 0.025% hyaluronic acid mouthwash and topical steroid ointment mixture for ulcerated and inflammatory conditions. Drug adjustments were made based on laboratory tests and the patient's clinical condition was improving.Conclusion: Managing oral symptoms helps reduce morbidity in JSLE patients. Topical corticosteroids are considered the first line in controlling oral inflammation. Dentists play a role in improving patients' oral hygiene with the aim of reducing the risk of other opportunistic infections.","PeriodicalId":14337,"journal":{"name":"International Medical Case Reports Journal","volume":"17 ","pages":"695-702"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11284136/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141792480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The presentation of optic perineuritis is similar of optic neuritis which results in delayed diagnosis and management. Up to this date, we found a single case of optic neuritis that presented with transient monocular vision loss (TMVL). No cases of optic perineuritis were associated with TMVL. Here, we report a case of a 30-year-old woman who presented with recurrent attacks of painless vision loss in her left eye, reaching up to 30 attacks per day. Ophthalmological examination was otherwise unremarkable. Lab investigations were normal. Magnetic resonance imaging was done, which showed left optic nerve sheath enhancement suggestive of left-sided focal optic perineuritis. Patient was managed with 1 mg IV methylprednisolone for 3 days. We report this case to shed light on the importance of accurate and early diagnosis of optic perineuritis presenting with TMVL. Prompt management of optic perineuritis is crucial in reducing morbidity and risk of relapse.","PeriodicalId":14337,"journal":{"name":"International Medical Case Reports Journal","volume":"17 ","pages":"665-669"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11244626/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141616386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Malignant hemangiopericytomas constitute only four of these cases. The common clinical manifestations of a malignant omental tumor are abdominal mass and pain. We report on a woman 38 years old who came to the hospital's emergency department with a finding consisting of intestinal obstruction (abdominal pain, constipation, abdominal distention, and vomiting), and during a clinical examination a mass was discovered in the lower half of her abdomen. She had been experiencing these symptoms for three days before her arrival. During a clinical examination, a large size, hard mobile mass was discovered in the lower half of her abdomen. The patient underwent an abdominal CT scan which indicated the presence of a sizable, soft tissue mass located within the abdominal and pelvic region, exerting pressure on the small bowel loops, with mild free ascites. Due to the patient's acute abdomen, an exploration laparotomy was performed, revealing a large mass in the omentum measuring 20×20×10 cm and weighing 3 kg. The mass, along with the omentum, was completely removed, and histopathology confirmed a malignant hemangiopericytoma.","PeriodicalId":14337,"journal":{"name":"International Medical Case Reports Journal","volume":"17 ","pages":"653-657"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11227873/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141554751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
