Choroidal neurofibromatosis with congenital iris ectropion and buphthalmos: relationship and significance.

We report a case of unilateral buphthalmos in neurofibromatosis-1 without the other classical characteristics of the François syndrome (triad of unilateral buphthalmos, homolateral eyelid plexiform neuroma, and homolateral facial hemihypertrophy) and emphasize the difficulties in early diagnosis. The painful buphthalmic right eye was enucleated at the age of 13 months. Histopathology demonstrated diffuse choroidal neurofibromatosis in association with congenital iris ectropion syndrome. Cutaneous manifestations of neurofibromatosis subsequently developed in the patient and stigmata of the disease were later identified in other asymptomatic family members.

Managing for change. Models and questions for group practice leaders.

The health care environment continues to be characterized by rapid change and unpredictability. Perhaps the only constant is change itself. Managing successfully in this environment demands an increasing level of sophistication. In a rapidly changing environment, the manager must provide focus and direction and at the same time stay flexible so that the organization can quickly adjust to environmental demands. This article describes models for successful change management, followed by questions for the leader in a group practice.
