[Solitary eosinophilic granuloma of the external wall of the orbit].

Eosinophilic granuloma is a solitary form of histiocytosis X with a usually good prognosis. Sometimes spontaneous healing can even occur. The authors report a case of a 30-month-old boy who presented an eosinophilic granuloma of the lateral orbital wall. The correct diagnosis was obtained after computed tomographic scan followed by fine needle aspiration biopsy with histopathologic examination. The tumor increased rapidly, including a medial displacement of the globe and limitation of the eye movement. So chemotherapy (Vinblastine) with corticotherapy was performed. The clinical course was favorable, with no evidence of recurrence or systemic involvement. The originality of this case was the young age of the patient, the course and the efficacy of treatment. The authors emphasize the management of the disease.

[An orbitocranial foreign body. Diagnostic reflections].

The authors demonstrate how a delay in diagnosis, in the case of an orbito-cranial foreign body, serves to underscore importance of CT in even minor, orbito-facial injuries, when there is some suspicion of intracranial penetration. This examination, which should be requested as soon as possible in such cases, usually permits detection of the intracranial foreign body. However, if the image is much clearer than those of conventional X-rays, it can in certain cases, remain a matter of subtle interpretation, particularly in cases of less dense materials such as wood.

[Ocular hypotonia and retinal injuries in Steinert disease. Angiographic aspects].

The authors study ocular complications, mainly retinal, in three patients with myotonic dystrophy. The association of cataract, ocular hypotony, reticular or butterfly-shaped dystrophy of the macular pigmentary epithelium was observed in all cases. A bibliographical study regarding retinal lesions: clinical aspects (macular lesions and peripheral retinopathy), retinal functions (visual acuity, color sense, dark adaptation, electrophysiological examinations), histopathological aspects with proliferation of peripheral pigmentary epithelium, retinal and choroidal fibrohyalinosis. The authors report vitreous and retinal modifications (disc, macula, retinal vessels, peripheral retinopathy), evolutive aspects, electrophysiological anomalies in order to understand at best Steinert's ocular lesions.
