PURPOSE: To report a case of corneal edema caused by an iatrogenic lidocaine injection into the corneal stroma created while performing a local anesthetic (lidocaine) injection into the eyelid for a blepharoplasty procedure. CASE SUMMARY: A 15-year-old female visited our clinic after the onset of severe pain and decreased visual acuity while receiving a local anesthetic injection in the upper blepharon for a blepharoplasty procedure. At the first clinical visit, visual acuity was hand motion and an accurate anterior chamber examination was difficult because of corneal edema. The Seidel test was negative. On corneal optical coherence tomography, the corneal thickness was 1,580 µm without any sign of Descemet's membrane detachment. We prescribed 5% NaCl four times a day and prednisolone acetate eight times a day. On the next day after injury, the corneal edema was significantly improved (central corneal thickness: 660 µm), and Descemet's membrane detachment was still not observed. One week after injury, the naïve visual acuity was 20/20, the central corneal thickness was 560 µm, and the endothelial cell count was 3,260 cells/cm². Three weeks after injury, the corneal edema was fully resolved and only slight temporal corneal haziness remained. After 2 months, the cornea was clear without any subjective discomfort. CONCLUSIONS: Corneal edema without Descemet's membrane detachment can be resolved spontaneously without aggressive treatment such as gas or air injection. However, endothelial cell count and corneal opacity need to be monitored on follow up exam. This clinical experience suggests that severe corneal edema in anterior stromal layer could be spontaneously resolved without severe complication.

Purpose:
We evaluated the 3-month, postoperative clinical outcomes of patients implanted with refractive, aspheric, bifocal, Lentis Comfort (LS313-MF15, Oculentis) intraocular lenses (IOLs).
Methods:
Eighty-two eyes of 51 cataract patients underwent phacoemulsification and were implanted with LentisComfort IOLs. The uncorrected distant visual acuity (UCDVA), the 80-cm uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UCIVA), the 40-cm uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA), and refractive values were evaluated 1 and 3 months postoperatively. At the latter time, defocus curves were drawn, contrast sensitivity tested, and satisfaction surveyed.
Results:
At the 3-month postoperative follow-up, the mean spherical equivalent was -0.12 ± 0.21 D; and the mean LogMAR UCDVA, 80-cm UCIVA, and 40-cm UCNVA were 0.02 ± 0.03, 0.13 ± 0.07, and 0.42 ± 0.10 respectively. The defocus curves revealed visual acuities in excess of 0.2 LogMAR at points between the distant and intermediate targets. The mean contrast sensitivity fell in the range of 90% of a normal population under both photopic and mesopic conditions. In terms of satisfaction, 71.8% of patients were satisfied or very satisfied, but about 20% reported dysphotopsia.
Conclusions
Implantation of the refractive, aspheric, bifocal, intraocular, LentisComfort in patients with cataracts improved both the distant and intermediate visual acuities by 3 months after surgery and the visual quality was comparable to that afforded by other IOLs both objectively and subjectively.

The treatment of choice for Cushing's disease is surgical removal of tumor, the source of ACTH overproduction. In occasional patients in whom a surgical approach including total adrenalectomy is not feasible or surgical removal of tumor is not complete, medical treatment may be necessary because pituitary irradiation requires a long 1ag time to remission. Although ketoconazole, an imidazole derivative with inhibitory activity on adrenal steroidogenesis has been reported to be effective in the treatment of Cushing's disease, the limited effectiveness in lowering very high level of cortisol and occasional hepatotoxicity restrains its wide use. In this report, we describe a woman with Cushing's disease due to pituitary microadenoma. Transsphenoidal pituitary adenomeetomy followed by ketoconzole treatment had been unsuccessful in achieving remission of the disease, but combined treatment with ketoconazole and octreotide accomplished successful reduction in cortisol production.

BACKGROUND: Controversy exists as to whether or not inhalation anesthetics and intravenous anesthetics impair arterial oxygenation (PaO2) during one lung ventilation (OLV). Accordingly, we examined the effect of enflurane and propofol on PaO2 and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) during OLV. METHODS: Forty patients, who had prolonged periods of OLV anesthesia with minimal trauma to the nonventilated lung were studied in a cross over design. Patients were randomized to four groups; Group 1 received 1 MAC of enflurane and oxygen from induction until the first 20 min after complete lung collapse, then were switched to propofol 100 g/kg/min (P100). In group 2, the order of the anesthetics was reversed. Group 3, Group 4 received the same order of the anesthetics as Group 1, Group 2, respectively but received propofol 200 g/kg/min (P200). RESULTS: During OLV, the PaO2 values were lower than those with two lung ventilation (TLV), there were no significant differences among each groups and between propofol and enflurane in PaO2, but in the selected patients (n=10, PaO2<120 mmHg during OLV), PaO2 in propofol group was higher than that of enflurane group (p<0.05). Conversion from TLV to OLV caused a significant increase in PVR, but there were no difference in PVR between propofol and enflurane group. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that the usual clinical dose of propofol affords no advantage over 1 MAC of enflurane anesthesia except low PaO2 patients during OLV. Propofol might be of value in risk patients of hypoxemia during thoracic surgery when OLV is planned.

Hypergammaglobulinemic purpura of Waldenstrom is a distinct syndrome consisting of recurrent episodes of purpura, elevated serum r-globulins, elevated erythrocyteed rnentation rate, and mild anemia. This disease has been divided into the prirnary type without an uncerlying disease, and the secondary type with a known underlying disease. We diagnosed a hypergammaglobulinemic purpura of Waldenstram in a 53-year-old woman who presented sudden onset of showers of purpuric macules and petechiae of 24 hours duration involving her lower extremities with a 10-rnonth history. She showed characteristic laboratory findings consistent with those of hypergammiglobulnemic purpura of Waldenstrorri and also showed positive results of antinuclear antibody and rheumatoid factor. We tried to find out if there we any associated underlying disases such as systemic lupus erythematosus or Sjogren synirorne through various tests but faile it find any. We concluded she showed a primary type of hypergarnmhglobulinemic purpura of Waldcnstrorn.

A classification and analysis according to sex, age, disease entity and operation was done on 772 inpatients (1008 eyes) admitted to the department of ophthalmology at Chonnam University Hospital. The results were as follows: 1) There were 477 males(61.6%) and 300 females (38.9%). Males far outnumbered females. 2) According to age, the largest group was under age 10,131 (17.0%), and the smallest group in their thirties. 68 (8.8%). 3) Surgical procedures were performed on 517 patients(67%) and not on 255(33%) 4) There were no significant differences in the distribution of the involved site; 272 (35.2%) were left eyes, 266 (34.5%) right eyes, and 234(30.3%) both eyes. 5) The most common ocular diseases were, in order of frequency, catarct(35.1%), trauma, glaucoma, and strabismus.
