Course of the accessory optic fascicular fibers in the rat.

The courses of fibers in the dorsal and lateral fasciculi of the accessory optic tract were studied in the rat by means of a selective silver impregnation method for degenerating nerve fibers and Mesulam's HRP method. The results indicate that except for a moderate number of fibers entering the dorsal terminal nucleus and the lateral terminal nucleus respectively, all optic fibers constituting the dorsal and lateral fasciculi descend the lateral surface of the brain to terminate in the medial terminal nucleus. No ascending optic nerve fiber to the dorsal or lateral terminal nucleus is included in these fasciculi.

Pancytopenia in tuberous sclerosis.

A 46-year-old woman with edema and pancytopenia was referred for further evaluation. She was diagnosed as tuberous sclerosis with clinical manifestations such as facial adenoma sebaceous, ungual and periungual fibroma, subependymal nodules and renal angiomyolipoma. Her edema seemed due to hypercardiac function induced by massive anemia. X-ray revealed extraordinary thickening of the cortex of long bones of the extremities as well as patchy osteosclerotic findings in vertebra, suggesting that hematopoietic space was significantly reduced. Pancytopenia improved after splenectomy. Histological examination revealed several intrasplenic hemangiomas but its relationship to hypersplenism was not clear. It seemed that her massive pancytopenia was induced by a combination of hypersplenism and significant reduction in hematopoetic space. In tuberous sclerosis, various systemic complications sometimes induce severe hematological abnormalities. According to previous literatures, the present case of tuberous sclerosis manifested the most outstanding hematological complications.
