Acute proptosis in relation to activated protein C resistance: a case report.

Activated Protein C resistance is a recently described clotting disorder, accounting for several previously undiagnosed thrombophilic states. Initially this defect had been associated with leg vein thromboses, but it is now recognised that other vascular beds are also prone to clotting in this disorder. We report a case of acute proptosis in a patient with Activated Protein C resistance, due to cavernous sinus thrombosis.

Iris prolapse following cataract surgery.

6,485 cases of cataract extraction are reviewed. Iris prolapse was a post-operative complication in 32 cases. (Incidence = 0.49 per cent). It is a relatively uncommon complication of present day cataract surgery, and it is postulated that iris prolapse results from transient pupillary block, in the post-operative period.
