Article Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the surgical results of sulcus intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in children with unilateral anterior persistent fetal vasculature (PFV) underwent primary vitrectomy combined with lensectomy and preservation of the peripheral anterior capsule.
Methods: Twenty-two eyes of 22 children with unilateral anterior PFV who underwent sulcus secondary IOL implantation were analyzed. Main outcome measures were preoperative and postoperative visual acuity, and complications both intraoperatively and postoperatively.
Results: Review of 22 consecutive patients identified best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improvement from 1.37±0.84 to 0.73±0.57 logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution (logMAR) after IOL implantation (<0.001) with a mean follow-up was 16.55±5.86mo. Average age at secondary IOL implantation was 41.05±15.41mo. Three eyes (13.64%) achieved BCVA of 0.3 logMAR at the final visit. Transient intraocular pressure rise (4 eyes; 18.18%), postoperative increased inflammation (3 eyes; 13.64%) and postoperative hypotony (2 eyes; 9.09%) were common complications.
Conclusion: Properly preservation of the anterior lens capsule during the primary surgery facilitated secondary sulcus IOL implantation in pediatric patients with anterior PFV, with favorable postoperative visual outcomes and compatible percentage of complications.

Background: Monochorionic twins, characterized by placental sharing and vascular anastomoses, carry a high risk of brain injury, including perinatal arterial ischemic stroke (PAIS). However, the pathophysiology and timing-related risk factors of PAIS remain unclear.
Methods: Retrospective cohort of all monochorionic twins with neuroimaging-confirmed PAIS born from 2005 to 2024 and evaluated at a Dutch national referral center.

Purpose: The purpose of this prospective study was to investigate the effect of Kaplan fibres (KF), anterolateral ligament (ALL) and lateral meniscus (LM) injuries on preoperative anterolateral rotational instability (ALRI) in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-injured knees. It was hypothesised that injuries to the ALC (i.e.

Background: To describe clinical features, risk factors and outcomes of out-of-the-bag (OTB) intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation in dead bag syndrome (DBS).
Methods: Retrospective review of a single-surgeon series of eyes with IOLs that developed OTB IOL dislocation, managed at Singapore National Eye Centre (January 2014-December 2021), with a minimum of 6 months of follow-up. Eyes with OTB IOL dislocation following secondary IOL implantation and intraoperative capsule complications were excluded.
Steeper medial posterior tibial slope is associated with bilateral ACL injuries: A radiographic comparison with unilateral cases.

Purpose: The posterior tibial slope (PTS) plays a key role in knee biomechanics and may influence the risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture as well as the outcomes of its reconstruction. We hypothesised that a steeper medial posterior tibial slope (MPTS) would be associated with an increased risk of bilateral ACL reconstruction compared to unilateral reconstruction. This study aimed to test this hypothesis by comparing the MPTS between patients undergoing unilateral ACL reconstruction (uniACLR) and those requiring non-simultaneous bilateral ACL reconstruction (biACLR), using radiographic imaging.
