The granuloma is primarily due to exposure of the sling itself or the sleeve enveloping the sling or the suture tied around the sleeve thereby. They do not respond to antibiotics but respond very well to explantation. These patients can be taken up for re-sling surgery after a waiting period of 3 months.

An 11-year-old male child presented with a mass on the nasal aspect of the right eye that has been there for the last 2 years. Extraocular movements were decreased in the right eye on levoversion, levoelevation, and levodepression. Local examination revealed a bluish mass with irregular surface and ill-defined margins located in the medial rectus muscle. The mass was 10 × 20 mm in size, firm, nodular, nontender, nonpulsatile, noncompressible, and nonreducible. MRI of the orbit revealed a well-defined mass of approximately 23 × 13 mm along the medial rectus (MR) muscle. It was hyperintense on T2W images with very minimal contrast enhancement. A provisional diagnosis of hemangioma or lymphangioma with intralesional haemorrhage was made. During surgical excision, the mass was found to be encapsulated by MR fibres. The MR fibres were separated, and the mass measuring 20 × 8 × 6.5 mm was removed and sent for histopathology. The histopathological examination revealed an intramuscular cavernous hemangioma.

To determine the safety and efficacy of topical 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 5% ointment in treatment of non-syndromic multifocal basal cell carcinoma. A 55-year-old male patient, with 8 hours of daily sun exposure, having histologically proven and radiologically non-syndromic, multifocal basal cell carcinoma with involvement of 6 sites on the face, was treated with topical 5-FU 5% ointment twice daily over all sites except the site involving lid margin to prevent corneal toxicity. Left lid lesion underwent wide surgical excision with 5-mm clear margins and reconstruction with nasal septal mucoperichondrium and local skin mobilization. Pharmacologic effects first appeared at 4 weeks and by 8 weeks, the lesions had scabbed and had fallen off with no induration but residual mild perilesional erythema. Patient had post-op histopathological clear margins and recovered uneventfully. No recurrence in 6 months. A topical 5-FU 5% ointment represents a paradigm shift in the treatment of BCC from invasive and disfiguring options (surgery and chemoradiotherapy) to cheap, convenient, effective, non-invasive, non-disfiguring topical chemotherapy. Topical 5% 5-FU is a safe and effective modality of treatment of superficial spreading multifocal basal carcinoma, especially lesions larger than 10 mm, where margins cannot be identified clearly and recurrent lesions.

Purpose: To determine whether macular volume and macular GCA measurements in patients are comparable to their RNFL thickness parameters. Materials and Methods: The cross-sectional, observational study was conducted on 1380 eyes with 460 each, into three groups. Group I: patients with healthy eyes. Group II: patients diagnosed as pre-perimetric glaucoma. Group III: patients with diagnosed perimetric glaucoma. After patients were selected on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria, baseline standard ophthalmic examination was done by the same operator under the same settings, including SD-OCT using both the Spectralis SD-OCT and the Cirrus SD-OCT as elaborated below. Statistical Analysis: Data were checked for normality before statistical analysis using Shapiro-Wilk test. Normally distributed continuous variables were compared using ANOVA. For all statistical tests, a p < 0.05 was taken to indicate a significant difference. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to define the ability RNFL and GCC parameters to distinguish perimetric and preperimetric glaucomatous eyes from control eyes. Results: There was a statistically significant difference in the average, superior, inferior RNFL thickness and average, superior, inferior GCIPL thickness between Group I and Group II (p<0.001), between Group I and Group III (p<0.001) and also between Group II and Group III (p<0.001). The statistical significance was also reflected in their AUROCs. Conclusion: Mean, superior, inferior GCIPL thickness along with macular volume analysis can substantiate RNFL analysis for diagnosis, serial monitoring and follow-up of glaucoma patients and suspects.
