“…In our case, there was no retrocorneal membrane, intractable glaucoma, corneal edema, positive Siedel test. 13 The clinical picture was that of a ruptured implantation cyst which corroborated well with histopathology. A similiar case has been reported by Tulvatana et al 14 , but the dermoid was intact in their case.…”

“…Brass and aluminum particles could also be precisely localized in the anterior chamber. UBM has been found useful in evaluating other forms of anterior segment injury, including angle recession (Berinstein et al 1997), cyclodialysis cleft (Karwatowski & Weinreb 1994;Gentile et al 1996), epithelial downgrowth (Weiner et al 1989), and Descemet's membrane detachments (Morinelli et al 1996).…”

ABSTRACT.Purpose: To evaluate the ultrasound biomicroscopic appearance of anterior segment foreign bodies under clinical and experimental conditions. Methods: Ultrasound biomicroscopy was performed on 4 eyes of 4 patients referred for evaluation of anterior segment trauma and known or suspected intraocular foreign body. Imaging of wood, aluminum, concrete, and glass foreign bodies was performed in the anterior chamber of a human cadaver eye. Results: Ultrasound biomicroscopy verified the location of a foreign body in two patients and identified occult foreign bodies in two others. Under clinical and experimental conditions, intraocular aluminum and glass produced comet tail artifacts. Under experimental conditions intraocular wood and concrete produced shadowing artifacts. Conclusion: Ultrasound biomicroscopy provides useful information in the evaluation of known and occult anterior segment foreign bodies. Ultrasound patterns of shadowing and comet tail may help differentiate foreign body materials.

“…1 While observations made 50 years ago indicate a disease incidence of greater than 0.1% after cataract surgery, 2 more recent trends have suggested that improvements in microsurgical techniques have led to a decreasing incidence of the situation. 3 Only 1 report has been published describing epithelial downgrowth following sutureless cataract surgery, 4 and to our knowledge, no reports have emerged following sutureless cataract surgery with phacoemulsification. In this case, it is possible that there was an unappreciated gaping of an unsutured corneal wound that contributed to the development of the abnormality.…”
