Abstract:
To describe a case of inflammatory neovascularization of the lens after open globe injury.
Abstract:
Case report.
Abstract:
A 57-year-old man presented with severe inflammation, posterior synechiae with traumatic cataract, and thick neovascularization of the intralenticular and anterior lens capsule after open globe injury in the left eye. We administered an intravitreal bevacizumab injection and performed cataract surgery with synechiolysis 1 month later.
Abstract:
Inflammation after open globe injury may present as intralenticular neovascularization. Before cataract surgery for traumatic cataract with intralenticular neovascularization, the use of intravitreal bevacizumab injection was ineffective.

Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
