Atypical parafoveal telangiectasis with subsequent anterior and posterior segment neovascularization.

Bilateral parafoveal telangiectasis typically includes the presence of fluorescein staining of outer retinal capillaries, no macular ischemia, right-angled venules, and migration of pigment along these venules. In the bilateral form, atypical parafoveal telangiectasis with macular ischemia but without right-angled venules or migration of pigment along these venules has been reported in only five patients previously. An atypical case is presented of bilateral parafoveal telangiectasis complicated, not only by areas of macular nonperfusion, but also by peripheral ischemia with subsequent anterior and posterior segment neovascularization in the absence of any systemic abnormalities. As in previously reported cases, this patient had no evidence of right-angled venules or pigment migration. Pan-retinal photocoagulation resolved the rubeosis and caused regression of the retinal neovascularization.

Focal parafoveal retinal telangiectasis.

We describe four patients, two of whom are sisters, with an unusual form of retinal telangiectasis. The vascular abnormality is localized to the temporal parafoveal retina and is virtually identical in appearance in every patient. Other characteristics include: both men and women are involved, both eyes are generally affected, and symptoms develop in middle life. Laser photocoagulation succeeds in improving the visual acuity in the treated eyes. The consistency of the appearance and location, and the familial tendency indicates these cases probably form a subgroup of retinal telangiectasis.

[Variable pseudoerythroplasic telangiectasis balanitis].

This is a special case of balanitis, that authors separate from entities clinically established such as Erthroplasie of Queyrat, Balanitis of Zoon, Liquenoide Balantis with Plasmocytes and the Balantis of Sulsberger and Garbe's illness. The V. P. T. B. is clinically characterized by the presence of telangiectasies, ertroplasiform aspect, without any infiltration, non purpure, the V. P. T. B. goes through a first period truly esythematous and a second one in which these is also desquamation. That cycle is completed in a month. At the histopathologic level, the most important characteristics are: epidermis with its Malpighian layer in a normal state, the basal layers showing hidropic degeneration. The repper dermis shows a lichenoid picture that, in certain places affects the basal layer. The infiltrate is composed of: lymphocytes, monocytes and plasmocytes. Numerous telangiectasies are also observed.

Capillary telangiectasis of the brain in chimpanzee.

The occurrence of capillary telangiectasis of the brain in a chimpanzee is reported. The telangiectases were multiple and diffusely scattered throughout the brain although the cerebral and cerebellar cortex were particulary affected. Hemorrhage into surrounding gliotic parenchyma was present. The were associated neuroligic sings, most significantly paralysis and convulsions, and the outcome was fatal. A Case of this nature has not previously been reported.

Retinal telangiectasis: delayed response to photocoagulation.

A case suggestive of early Coats' disease treated cautiously with xenon arc photocoagulation is presented. Although adequate reaction was observed, the abnormal vessels persisted through the initial follow-up period. However, 9 months after treatment the vessels were found to be obliterated.

[Sclerosing treatment of telangiectasis of the lower extremities].

Sclerosant treatment of the telangiectasias should follow several rules : --Sclerosis of varicose veins, then of varicosities, should always precede sclerosis of the telangiectasias. --Small amounts of sclerosant material should be injected at a time, using numerous points of injection. --The author describes the material employed and recommends the use of loop glasses for the treatment of the smallest telangiectasias. --The efficacy of sclerosant treatment is greater than that of other known methods.

[Nevus telangiectasis of the facial skin: possibilities and problems of plastic surgery].

If a portwine stain (capillary hemangioma) or a cavernous hemangioma of the facial skin is not camouflaged by cosmetics, surgical excision and full-thickness skin grafting appears to be the method of choice. Exact planning (donor areas) and perfected technique are prerequisites for results in which the grafted skin matches in color, texture, contour and thickness the unaffected facial side.

Gill lesions in Cichlid fishes after intoxication with the insecticide Fenthion.

The toxic effects of Fenthion on the gills of Cichlid fishes were investigated. In Herotilapia multispinosa hyperplasia and separation of the respiratory epithelium, lamellar telangiectasis and thrombosis occurred. The lamellar epithelium of surviving fish regenerated in all cases. In Tilapia leucosticta no telangiectasis was found, but all the secondary lamellae were fused due to the severe hyperplasia of the gill epithelium.
