[Modified dacryocystorhinostomy].

OBJECTIVE: To introduce a novelty-modified dacryocystorhinostomy. METHODS: With the innovated scalpels, 11 patients (13 eyes) suffering from chronic dacryocystitis were performed with the newly modified surgical procedures derived from traditional dacryocystorhinostomy. The efficacy, efficiency, and complications were observed. RESULTS: Thirteen operations for 11 patients were performed successfully and efficiently. The wound was during operation neat and with a slight hemorrhage which could be stanched easily. No serious complications were observed intra-operatively. The average time of follow-up was 7.8 months (6-12 months). All the dacryocysto-rhinal canals remained unblocked. CONCLUSIONS: The modified dacryocystorhinostomy with the help of innovated mucous scalpel has high success rate, high efficiency and low complications. It deserves wide application as the first choice for chronic dacryocystitis.

[Cytomegalovirus retinitis associated with Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the fundus characteristics, systemic features and therapeutic outcomes of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis associated with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). METHODS: Fundus features, visual acuity, fundus fluorescence angiography (FFA) and CD4(+)T-lymphocyte counts of 15 eyes (8 patients) of CMV retinitis associated with AIDS were analyzed. The time of average follow-up was 16 months. Intravitreal injection of ganciclovir (400 microg) was performed in 4 eyes (2 patients). RESULTS: In the initial examination, visual acuity of the patients was as following: < or = 0.2, 10 eyes (66.7%); no light perception (NLP) (2 eyes); light perception (LP) (2 eyes); 0.04-0.2, 6 eyes; > or = 1.0, 3 eyes (20.0%) and 0.8 or 0.9 each for 1 eye (13.3%). The fundus manifestation includes: the retinal vasculitis; dense, full-thickness, yellow-white lesions along vascular distribution, and hemorrhage on the retinal surface; granular with irregular border featured as "cheese and ketchup retinitis" was revealed in 12 eyes; the vitreous was clear or light opaque. Late stage of the retinopathy was demonstrated in 2 eyes characterized as grayish atrophic retina, vessel-sclerotic and attenuated, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) atrophy, prominent choroid vasculature, and optic nerve atrophy. Retinal detachment was found in 1 eye. CD4(+)T-lymphocytes counts in peripheral blood were between 0 approximately 36/mm(3), average (15.0 +/- 12.9) mm(3). Visual acuity improved, fundus lesions disappeared observably and hemorrhage was absorbed in the 4 eyes after intravitreal injection of ganciclovir. CONCLUSIONS: CMV retinitis is the severest and the most common intraocular complication in patients with AIDS. For the patients with yellow-white retinal lesions, hemorrhage and retinal vasculitis of undefined cause, the antibody of serum anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) should be screened. Routing eye examination should be performed if the serological test of HIV is positive.

[Progress in the studies on cytomegalovirus retinitis].

Cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) is the commonest opportunistic ocular infection in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), typically occurs when CD4+ T cell counts fall below 50/mm3. CMVR accounts for the majority of the vision loss associated with HIV-related eye diseases. However progress in the studies on CMVR, including the prevalence, clinical features, differential diagnosis and recent advances in the management of CMVR is reviewed.
