Abstract
INTRODUCTION Open globe injuries are a major cause of visual impairment in children, related to the severity of the trauma or secondary to induced amblyopia. Intraocular foreign bodies (IOFB) have been reported in approximately one third of cases of open globe injuries. As clinical presentation and management may differ between adults and children, data is lacking about IOFBs in children under 18years of age. The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical characteristics and visual prognosis of ocular trauma associated with intraocular foreign bodies in children. MATERIALS AND METHODS This single-center retrospective study included patients under 18years of age treated for ocular trauma with IOFB. Demographic characteristics, complete initial and final ophthalmological examination, imaging data and details of medical and surgical management were collected. RESULTS Fourteen patients were included (78.6% boys), with a mean age of 10.3years (min 7months-max 17years). In 92.9% of cases, patients were found to have a single IOFB, mostly metallic (71.4%). Posterior segment IOFBs were found in 50% of cases, anterior segment IOFBs in 28.6% and orbital IOFBs in 21.4%. The clinical examination permitted detection of the IOFBs in 50% of cases, while they were visible on CT scan in all cases. The mean initial visual acuity was 20/320, and the mean final visual acuity was 20/125. Endophthalmitis occurred in 2 cases (14%). DISCUSSION Open globe injuries associated with IOFB are severe and sight-threatening. Localization of the IOFB in the posterior segment has a worse prognosis. CT scan is mandatory, especially in children, as the trauma history is often missing. Retinal detachment and endophthalmitis appear to be the main prognostic factors requiring urgent specialized pediatric ophthalmology management.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Seroma is a common complication after prepectoral prosthetic breast reconstruction with ADM, leading to wound dehiscencse, infection, and even loss of reconstruction at last. A new ultrasound (US) guided follow-up protocol has been applied to compare primary and secondary complications incidence and their treatment, and evaluate the effect of precocious seroma detection and its evacuation in reducing secondary complications. METHODS We enrolled 406 patients from January 1st, 2021 to July 1st, 2023 who underwent mastectomy and 1-stage prepectoral reconstruction with ADM. Experimental group counted 96 patients, whom have been treated as protocol fashion, therefore with multiple US-guided evaluations and eventual evacuations along with postoperative period; control group (310 patients) has exclusively been clinically evaluated. RESULTS Seroma incidence detected rate among experimental group, after 1-year follow-up, was 32.2%, compared to 16.8% in control cohort, additionally no other secondary complications were detected in the first group. Referring to the wound dehiscence incidence, a statistically significant higher frequency was observed in control group compared with treatment 1 (21.2% vs. 0%; P = .0027). CONCLUSIONS Seroma and correlated secondary complications may lead to additional surgeries, higher sanitary costs and even reconstructive failure. With a seriated US follow-up protocol application, the surgeon could promptly manage and treat seroma, decreasing additional complications rate, particularly wound dehiscence. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
Background and Objective: Prepectoral implant placement in breast reconstruction is currently a must-have in the portfolios of breast surgeons. The introduction of new tools and conservative mastectomies is a game changer in this field. The prepectoral plane usually goes hand-in-hand with the ADM wrapping of the implant. It is a cell-free dermal matrix comprising a structurally integrated basement membrane complex and an extracellular matrix. The literature reports that ADMs may be useful, but proper patient selection, surgical placement, and post-operative management are essential to unlock the potential of this tool, as these factors contribute to the proper integration of the matrix with surrounding tissues. Materials and Methods: A total of 245 prepectoral breast reconstructions with prostheses or expanders and ADMs were performed in our institution between 2016 and 2022. A retrospective study was carried out to record patient characteristics, risk factors, surgical procedures, reconstructive processes, and complications. Based on our experience, we developed a meticulous reconstruction protocol in order to optimize surgical practice and lower complication rates. The DTI and two-stage reconstruction were compared. Results: Seroma formation was the most frequent early complication (less than 90 days after surgery) that we observed; however, the majority were drained in outpatient settings and healed rapidly. Secondary healing of wounds, which required a few more weeks of dressing, represented the second most frequent early complication (10.61%). Rippling was the most common late complication, particularly in DTI patients. After comparing the DTI and two-stage reconstruction, no statistically significant increase in complications was found. Conclusions: The weakness of prepectoral breast reconstruction is poor matrix integration, which leads to seroma and other complications. ADM acts like a graft; it requires firm and healthy tissues to set in. In order to do so, there are three key steps to follow: (1) adequate patient selection; (2) preservative and gentle handling of intra-operative technique; and (3) meticulous post-operative management.

Abstract
AIM We evaluated the weight, insulin-like growth factor-1, neonatal, retinopathy of prematurity (WINROP) algorithm for very premature infants. METHOD Infants born before 32 weeks who had undergone fundus examinations in the neonatal intensive care unit at the University Hospital of Nancy were included in this French retrospective cohort study from July 2012 to July 2016. We evaluated how well the WINROP software predicted threshold retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). RESULTS We studied 570 infants with a mean gestational age of 28.7 ± 1.8 weeks and a mean birth weight of 1110 ± 297 g: 28.1% had ROP and 1.2% had threshold ROP. The overall WINROP sensitivity was 57.1%, specificity was 46.0%, predictive positive value was 1.3% and predictive negative value was 98.9%. At more than 30 weeks of gestation or 1250 g, these figures rose to a respective specificity of 100% and 95.7% and respective predictive negative value of 100% and 100%. There were independent associations between the severity of ROP and the Apgar score at five minutes, the duration of oxygen therapy and non-invasive ventilation. CONCLUSION WINROP worked better on preterm infants born from 31 weeks onwards or weighing over 1250 g. Fundus examinations remain necessary for infants born earlier or lighter.

Abstract
Suprachoroidal hemorrhages, both expulsive and delayed non-expulsive, are among the most devastating complications of intraocular surgery. We reviewed the charts of 13 patients with a delayed non-expulsive suprachoroidal hemorrhage (DNSCH) after cataract extraction (3 patients), glaucoma filtering surgery (6 patients), penetrating keratoplasty (3 patients), or vitrectomy (1 patient). All had large hemorrhagic choroidal detachments with nine eyes presenting kissing choroidal detachment, five eyes with associated retinal detachment, and one eye with intravitreous hemorrhage. All patients were treated with systemic corticosteroids before surgery. Eleven eyes underwent anterior drainage sclerotomy, followed by SF6 gas injection in eight eyes, and pars plana vitrectomy with silicon oil tamponade in three eyes. Mean follow-up was 22 months. These procedures gave good anatomical results in eleven cases and good visual results in nine. The results suggest that not all DNSCH need to be drained surgically but that, when surgical drainage is indicated, the use of gas to maintain internal tamponade appears to be beneficial.

Abstract
Lanthanide-activated SrF2 nanoparticles with a multishell architecture were investigated as optical thermometers in the biological windows. A ratiometric approach based on the relative changes in the intensities of different lanthanide (Nd3+ and Yb3+) NIR emissions was applied to investigate the thermometric properties of the nanoparticles. It was found that an appropriate doping with Er3+ ions can increase the thermometric properties of the Nd3+-Yb3+ coupled systems. In addition, a core containing Yb3+ and Tm3+ can generate light in the visible and UV regions upon near-infrared (NIR) laser excitation at 980 nm. The multishell structure combined with the rational choice of dopants proves to be particularly important to control and enhance the performance of nanoparticles as NIR nanothermometers.

Abstract
Exploiting the intrinsic photosensitivity of TiO₂ nanoparticles, we demonstrated how ultraviolet (UV) pulsed laser irradiation of acrylate polymer nanocomposite solutions can separate the initial clusters of these colloidal semiconductor nanorods into clearly distinct units. From the irradiated solutions, optically clear nanocomposite films are obtained which exhibit enhanced optical properties with respect to the nanocomposites obtained without previous UV treatment.

Abstract
The first 2 years of life are essential to visual development. The ophthalmological examination of a baby is different from that of an adult, in terms of both methodology and clinical signs. The specifics of examination at this age require a rigorous history taking as a first step: personal and family medical history, first sign of the disease and its progression. Cycloplegic refraction and fundus exam are both critical regardless of the reason for consultation. In addition, fundus exam must be performed at the first visit in cases of strabismus, nystagmus, or abnormal visual function, in order to rule out underlying retinoblastoma. Gross inspection of the patient can offer much information: malformations, visual behavior, oculomotor abnormalities. Quantification of vision and refraction is age-specific. It cannot be based solely on visual behavior, it cannot be just an approximation, and it often needs to be repeated. Lastly, examination of the anterior and posterior segments may require specialized equipment, special techniques, and may reveal pathology specific to the infant. Throughout the examination, patience and gentleness help greatly to insure a reliable diagnosis.

Abstract
Endogenous endophthalmitis is a rare eye disease, affecting vulnerable subjects (such as preterm or older elderly subjects), with reserved visual and sometimes vital prognosis. We present a preterm boy, born at 35 weeks and 2 days gestation, who developed a right eye Pseudomonas aeruginosa endogenous endophthalmitis secondary to a left-foot peripherical catheter-infection-associated bacteremia. He had a first intravenous antibiotic therapy associating third-generation cephalosporin and fluoroquinolone, then Ceftazidime® by intravitreous injection and a subconjunctival injection of betamethasone. Because of the development of vitreoretinal retraction, phacophagia and vitrectomy were performed. We point and discuss the severity of this disease, associated with poor visual and vital prognosis, and the importance of prompt biological diagnosis so that the appropriate intravenous antibiotic therapy is chosen. Treatment is also discussed, especially the interest value of antibiotic intravitreous injection in preterm infants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To determine the efficacy and tolerability of capecitabine combined with oxaliplatin (CAPOX) or irinotecan (CAPIRI) as first-line treatment in patients with advanced/metastatic colorectal cancer aged > or =70 years. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients aged > or =70 years were randomly assigned to receive CAPOX [oxaliplatin 65 mg/m(2) intravenously (i.v.) days 1 and 8 and capecitabine 1000 mg/m(2) orally b.i.d. days 1-14; q21d] or CAPIRI (irinotecan 80 mg/m(2) i.v. days 1 and 8 and capecitabine 1000 mg/m(2) orally b.i.d. days 1-14; q21d). The primary study end point was overall response rate (ORR). RESULTS Ninety-four patients were enrolled. In an intent-to-treat analysis, 2 complete responses (CRs) and 16 partial responses (PRs) were reported with CAPOX (ORR 38%), and 2 CRs and 15 PRs with CAPIRI (ORR 36%; P = 0.831). Median time to progression was 8 months for CAPOX and 7 months for CAPIRI (P = 0.195), with median survival times of 19.3 months and 14.0 months (P = 0.165), respectively. Global health status was improved in 45% and in 21% of patients in the CAPOX and CAPIRI arms, respectively. The most common treatment-related grade 3-4 adverse events in CAPIRI versus CAPOX patients were diarrhea (32% versus 15%; P = 0.052) and neutropenia (23% versus 6%; P = 0.021). CONCLUSION CAPOX and CAPIRI had similar efficacy in elderly patients, although CAPOX seemed to be better tolerated.

Abstract
A method of in situ formation of patterns of size controlled CdS nanocrystals in a polymer matrix by pulsed UV irradiation is presented. The films consist of Cd thiolate precursors with different carbon chain lengths embedded in TOPAS polymer matrices. Under UV irradiation the precursors are photolyzed, driving to the formation of CdS nanocrystals in the quantum size regime, with size and concentration defined by the number of incident UV pulses, while the host polymer remains macroscopically/microscopically unaffected. The emission of the formed nanocomposite materials strongly depends on the dimensions of the CdS nanocrystals, thus, their growth at the different phases of the irradiation is monitored using spatially resolved photoluminescence by means of a confocal microscope. X-ray diffraction measurements verified the existence of the CdS nanocrystals, and defined their crystal structure for all the studied cases. The results are reinforced by transmission electron microscopy. It is proved that the selection of the precursor determines the efficiency of the procedure, and the quality of the formed nanocrystals. Moreover it is demonstrated that there is the possibility of laser induced formation of well-defined patterns of CdS nanocrystals, opening up new perspectives in the development of nanodevices.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We report the case of an acute rise in intraocular pressure occurring decades after the treatment for prematurity (ROP). CASE REPORT A 54-year-old preterm woman presented an acute rise in intraocular pressure in her right amblyopic eye. Prominent dilatation of iridal vessels was noted. Fundus was not visible at that time because of corneal edema. Ocular echography was normal. The fellow eye showed temporal attraction of temporal vessels suggestive of retinopathy of prematurity at the cicatricial stage. Neovascular glaucoma was postulated and pressure control was obtained after cyclodestruction and transscleral cryoapplication. After resolution of corneal edema, fundus examination revealed extensive peripheral retinal photocoagulation scars. Iridocorneal angle presented extensive iridocorneal synechias without true new vessels. Visual acuity remained limited to hand motion. CONCLUSION Prominent iris dilatation seen in some preterm patients can mimic rubeosis, and, in the present case, mislead to a diagnosis of neovascular glaucoma. Diagnosis can be difficult if the patient is not specifically asked for a history of prematurity. The case underlines the notion that ROP patients may present very late complications of the disease.

Abstract
An eight years experience in the management of deep hand burns is presented. We reviewed 116 cases of patients surgically treated with escarectomy and skin autograft. Seventy eight of them underwent early surgery within the first 4-6 days from injury, while 38 were conservatively treated in the fist stage and only lately surgery was performed (usually after the 14th day). In all patients, we applied the same post operative topic treatment and rehabilitation protocol. Several months after first admission, only 6(7.7%) of early treated patients needed secondary correction for unaesthetic and functionally debilitating scars versus 14(36.8%) of the late treated group. Our review confirm the importance of performing early surgery of deep burns of the hands, whenever possible, in order to achieve best results and shows it's utility in reducing re-admissions for secondary revisions.
