[Uveal melanoma].

The paper present a clinic and histological study, including all cases of uveal malignant tumours, hospitalized in Ophthalmological Clinic of Craiova in the last 15 years. The follow-up period of cases were 4 years. The diagnosis was established by clinic and paraclinic examination (imaging methods-- MRI, CT, Echo) and histologic examination. The histologic examination has been done for all cases. There were investigated several parametres: tumour cytology, the level of pigmentation, intravascular embolus, sclera infiltration, vascular invasion, vascular pattern, tumoral necrosis, mitotic activity. The histologic aspects of tumoral progression were: the high level mitotic activity, high surface area of intratumoral necrosis, the infiltrative process to the vessels, sclera, and ciliary body. The arcuat and network vascular patterns were involved in the systemic metastasis and local invasion. The most predominant type of cellularity related with a severe evolution of cases were the epithelioid cells and the mixed type cells.

[General and local risk factors in infectious keratitis].

PURPOSE: The paper presents a study of corneal ulcers at aged persons for the identification of etiologic and aggravates factors that may have a negative influence for the prognostic of the diseases. MATERIAL AND METHOD: We have performed a retrospective study using a lot of aged patients with corneal ulcers, hospitalized in 2002-2003 period. The data were obtained by both clinical examination (anamnesis and ocular examination) and by the laboratory exams (microbiologic exam). RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS: We have analyzed by the epidemiological point of view, the distribution of cases with the age, sex, provenance area, and profession. We have demonstrated a predominant repartition of cases in the 7-th decade (45%) and for the masculine patients (in 60% of cases). The patients from rural area represented 75% of cases. In relationship with the etiology, the traumatic ulcers represent 25%, microbial keratitis 45% associated with local or general aggravating factors. Microbiological exam has revealed in principal non pathogen or pathogen germs in 10 cases (staphylococcus), moderate virulence germs in 5 cases (streptococcus) or very virulent germs (escherichia colli and pyocyanic bacillus) in 2 cases. CONCLUSIONS: The evolution of corneal ulcers at aged people is determined by etiologic and aggravating factors. The improvement of the evolution and of the prognosis depends on the most precocious application of local and general therapeutic measures.

[Neovascular glaucoma--retrospective study].

The paper realized the retrospective evaluation of all cases of neovascular glaucoma hospitalized in Clinic of Ophthalmology of Craiova in the last 15 years. Neovascular secondary glaucoma represents 3,9% of all glaucomas. The most important etiologic factors were the central venous occlusion, diabetic retinopathy, carotid occlusion, intraocular tumors, chronic uveitis, Fuchs heterochromy. Neovascular secondary glaucoma is characterized by important hypoxic tissues destructions, presented of all levels that lead to neovessels formation with irreversible anatomic and functional losing of ocular globe. The identification of neovascular glaucoma causes and their treatment is important to prevent that diseases.
