RÉSUMÉ
Upon review, it is noted that recurrent painful ophthalmoplegic neuropathy (RPON) is a rare neurological syndrome characterized by recurrent unilateral headaches and painful ophthalmoplegia of the ipsilateral oculomotor nerve. As seen on brain MRI, thickening and enhancement of the oculomotor cranial nerve can be observed in these cases. We experienced a case of RPON in an adult patient who showed thickening and enhancement of the oculomotor nerve on gadolinium-enhanced 3D-FLAIR image. The authors report a case of RPON with a review of the literature.

Cavernous hemangioma of the gallbladder is an extremely rare benign tumor. The tumor has only a few cases being reported in literature. However, to the best of our knowledge, no reports focusing on the MRI findings of cavernous hemangioma of the gallbladder have been published. This study reports a case of gallbladder hemangioma with pathologic and radiologic reviews, including MRI findings.

PURPOSE: To report clinical manifestations including neurocutaneous and ocular findings and to evaluate outcomes of trabeculectomy in patients with Sturge-Weber syndrome. METHODS: The medical records of 10 eyes of 8 glaucoma patients with Sturge-Weber syndrome who were followed up for at least 1 year after trabeculectomy were reviewed retrospectively. We analyzed neurocutaneous and ocular findings, cumulative surgical success rates, and complications in patients with Sturge-Weber syndrome. RESULTS: The mean patient age at the time of surgery was 12.6 +/- 13.0 years and mean follow-up period was 71.6 +/- 81.8 months. All patients showed various clinical findings including facial hemangioma (8 patients), seizure (6 patients), intracranial lesion (6 patients), developmental delay (4 patients), conjunctival/episcleral hemangioma (4 eyes), and choroidal hemangioma (4 eyes). Postoperative success was achieved in 8 out of 10 eyes (80.0%). Postoperatively, serous retinal detachment occurred in 2 out of 4 eyes with preoperative diffuse choroidal hemangioma. CONCLUSIONS: Management of glaucoma associated with Sturge-Weber syndrome requires multidisciplinary treatment because of systemic involvement. Trabeculectomy appears to be an effective and relatively safe surgical option for glaucoma associated with Sturge-Weber syndrome. However, serious complications such as serous retinal detachment should be considered when planning trabeculectomy for patients with diffuse choroidal hemangioma.

PURPOSE: To compare the anatomical and functional results of vitrectomy for macular hole with and without prone posture. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 71 eyes of 71 patients who received macular hole repair and were followed up for at least 6 months. The anatomical success, complications, and best corrected visual acuity at postoperative 6 months and last follow-up between patients who were advised to take a prone posture for 1 week (group 1) and patients who were advised to simply avoid the supine position right from the surgery (group 2) were analyzed. Subgroup division analysis according to macular hole size and concurrent phacoemulsification was performed. RESULTS: Macular hole closure rate was 91.7% (33 of 36 eyes) in group 1 and 88.6% (31 of 35 eyes) in group 2 (p=0.710). The mean visual acuity at final follow-up increased in both groups by 4.75 +/- 3.83 and 4.76 +/- 2.96 lines, respectively and revealed no statistically significant difference (p = 0.988). Twenty-seven of 36 eyes (75%) in group 1 and 30 of 35 eyes (85.7%) in group 2 underwent concurrent phacoemulsification, and no difference in macular hole closure rate and visual acuity improvement between the two postures was observed. CONCLUSIONS: Favorable anatomical and functional outcomes were achieved without postoperative face-down posturing in the case of phacovitrectomy with wide internal limiting membrane peeling and gas tamponade.
