Abstract

Purpose:

To draw attention to a novel treatment agent for vision loss associated with peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chorioretinopathy.

Methods:

The case of an 83-year-old man suffering with loss of left visual acuity vision in the context of vitreous hemorrhage secondary to peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chorioretinopathy is described.

Results:

Resolution of vitreous hemorrhage and subretinal hemorrhage was demonstrated after treatment with aflibercept.

Conclusion:

Peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chorioretinopathy is discussed in terms of its presentation, pathophysiology, and existing treatment methodologies.

Inflammatory Response II: Inflammatory Exudate and Tissue Repair

Inflammatory Response II: Inflammatory Exudate and Tissue Repair

The immune system's inflammatory response destroys the invading pathogen, permitting the tissue to heal. The changes during the cellular and vascular stages allow exudate formation at the site of inflammation. The inflammatory exudate released from the wound has high protein content and a specific gravity above 1.020.
The typical wound exudate is odorless, transparent, straw-colored, thin, and watery. Exudate, however, can differ depending on the state of wound healing. Likewise, the...

Peripheral Nervous System: Ganglia and Nerves

The Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) is a crucial component of the body's neural network, extending beyond the central nervous system (CNS) to bridge the gap between the CNS and the external environment. It encompasses nerves, ganglia, and sensory receptors.
Nerves
The nerve is a bundle of axons that serves as the communication highway in the PNS. Each nerve is ensheathed in a protective layer of connective tissue called the epineurium. This outermost layer safeguards the nerve and supports the...

Peripheral Artery Disease I: Introduction

Peripheral Artery Disease I: Introduction

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) predominantly results from atherosclerosis, which involves the accumulation of fatty deposits, or plaques, within the walls of arteries. This causes them to narrow and harden, significantly reducing blood flow. PAD predominantly affects the legs, particularly the arteries supplying the thighs and calves. In rare cases, it may involve other arteries, including those in the arms.Etiology of PAD:The principal cause of PAD is atherosclerosis, which results from fatty...
