Multiple System Atrophy

Persistent pupillary membrane ia a congenital anomaly which waa resulted from incomplete atrophy of the fetal vascular arcades and its associated mesodermal tissue derived from the primitive annular vessels. Authors experienced a case (female, 17 years old) of thick persistent pupillary membrane of both eyes which were required complete removal of these membranes under operating microscope. Her corrected vision has improved up to 0.5 (Rt. eye) from 0.1 and 0.7 (Lt eye) from 0.2 without diplopia after operation.

In the margial myotomy of inferior oblique muscle(IO myotomy), only the overaction of the muscle is eliminated and the normal action of the inferior oblique saved. Steroid is usually used to prevent the adhesion of the tissue after IO myotomy, subconjunctivally. The myotomy of IO was performed in 14 white rabbits which were divided into two groups, one group having local injection of triamcinolone after IO myotomy and the other not having it. At postoperative 1 month, there were edema of the muscle fibers and infiltration of the inflammatory cells. Three months postoperatively, ingrowth of fibrous tissue and atrophy of the muscle fibers were found. Those changes were less prominent in the group with triamcinolone injection. This study revealed that subconjunctival triamcinolone injection after the IO marginal myotomy produce a good effect on the prevention of postoperative adhesion in the long term.

We report a case of atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini in which the characteristic soft atrophic patch with cliffdrop border developed on the neck and two well-demarcated indurated atrophic patches were on both shoulders. We took biopsies from centers and margins of each lesion. Histipathologic findings from atrophic center showed marked dermal atrophy comparing to that from margin of the lesion on the neck, but the atrophic center and margin of the lesion on the shoulder showed morphea-like features without, distinct differences between two.
