[Effect of amitriptyline and nortriptyline on the intracular pressure and aqueous humor dynamics in rabbits (author's transl)].

Both amitriptyline and nortriptyline applied conjunctivally produced pupil size enlargement, intraocular pressure decrease and a fall in aqueous humor formation. Phenoxybenzamine and superior cervical sympathetic ganglionectomy prevented the amitriptyline or nortriptyline inducing intraocular pressure changes. Either systemic administered or conjunctivally applied amitriptyline or nortriptyline, potentiated the effects on the pupil and intraocular pressure of exogenously norepinephrine.

Transcatheter coil embolization of an aneurysm of the pancreatico-duodenal artery with occluded celiac trunk.

We report on a case of a wide-necked aneurysm of the pancreatico-duodenal artery with occlusion of the celiac trunk in an asymptomatic patient. The aneurysm was considered to be at high risk of rupture. Successful embolization after interdisciplinary consultation was followed with color-coded duplex ultrasound (CCDS) demonstrating significant flow reduction. Three weeks later CCDS and angiography demonstrated exclusion of the aneurysm and a patent arterial supply of the liver and spleen fed by superior mesenteric artery (SMA) collaterals. The patient has done well so far, without major adverse clinical events or evidence for tissue necrosis of the liver, pancreas or spleen. Discussion of the case and review of the literature indicate that transcatheter embolization is the therapy of choice even in complicated cases.
