[Familial form of gelatin drop corneal dystrophy].

We report 4 cases of gelatin drop dystrophy corneal amyloidosis in two brothers and two sisters of the same family. The age of onset is between 1 and 10 years. The corneal signs are described at different stages of development. Lesions are initially asymmetrical. The typical is a subepithelial nodule starting in the center and then expanding to involve the whole cornea. There is no relationship between extension and outcome of the disease. Diagnostic is confirmed by histological examination. There was no consanguinity between parents and no other cases were found in the family. An immunological study with HLA typing was performed. All patients were treated with lamellar or transfixing keratoplasty with a follow-up of 2 to 5 years.

[Toxocara canis in apparently bilateral ocular site].

The authors report a rare case of ocular larva migrans lesions due toxocara canis in an 8-year-old child. Lesions were bilateral, consisting of peripheral chorioretinal granuloma, papillitis and vasculitis. Diagnosis was confirmed by eosinophilia (37%), positive serology in blood and aqueous humour and by raised immunoglobulins E in vitreous humour. The presence of vascular and chorioretinal lesions was demonstrated by fluorescein angiography. The patient was treated with antihelminthic drugs, topical and systemic steroids and ocular cryotherapy to the peripheral chorioretinal granuloma. The outcome was good, with lesions stabilised.
