Orbital surface coil imaging predicts surgical anatomy of medial rectus muscle in consecutive exotropia: a case report.

A 51-year-old woman with consecutive exotropia after surgery for esotropia underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of her orbits by orbital surface coil. Imaging demonstrated an 8.0 mm segment of very thin tissue that spanned the distance from a normal-looking medial rectus muscle proximally to the sclera distally. Surgical treatment revealed anatomic pathology of the medial rectus muscle consistent with spatial relationships of stretched scar and muscle that were predicted by MRI

Retinopathy in Gambian children admitted to hospital with malaria

A characteristic retinopathy associated with a poor prognosis has previously been described in African children with established cerebral malaria. However, relatively little is known about retinal abnormalities in children with severe non-cerebral malaria, the group most at risk of developing the cerebral complications of this disease. In this study the prevalence, pattern, clinical significance and accessibility to clinical examination of this characteristic retinopathy are described in 106 Gambian children admitted consecutively to hospital with severe malaria, including six with established cerebral malaria
