  • Recurrent Episcleritis in Children-Less Than 5 Years
    J Ayub Med Coll Abbottabad 2006; 18(4) CASE REPORT RECURRENT EPISCLERITIS IN CHILDREN-LESS THAN 5 YEARS OF AGE Syed Ashfaq Ali Shah, Hassan Sajid Kazmi, Abdul Aziz Awan, Jaffar Khan Department of Ophthalmology, Ayub Medical College and teaching Hospital, Abbottabad. Background: Episcleritis , though common in adults, is a rare disease in children. Episcleritis is associated with systemic diseases in a third of cases in adults. Here we describe systemic diseases associated with recurrent episcleritis in children less than five years of age. Method: This Retrospective Observational case series study was conducted at the Department of Ophthalmology of Ayub Teaching Hospital, Abbottabad, from March 1995 till February, 2006. Six children diagnosed clinically with recurrent episcleritis were included in this study. Complete ophthalmologic as well as systemic evaluation was done in each case. Results: This study was conducted on 6 children with a diagnosis of recurrent episcleritis. There were four boys and two girls, with an age range of 35-52 months. Right eye was involved in three cases, left eye in two cases while one case had a bilateral disease. Recurrence occurred in the same eye in all cases, with one bilateral involvement. Four children (66%) had a history of upper respiratory tract infection in the recent past. No other systemic abnormality was detected in any case. Two cases had a history of contact with a pet animal. Conclusion: Recurrent episcleritis in young children is a benign condition. Upper respiratory tract infection is the most common systemic association. Pet animals may be a contributory factor. Keywords: Recurrent Episcleritis, Children, Age, Systemic Disease.

  • Management of Ectopic Varix with Histoacryl
    J Ayub Med Coll Abbottabad 2014;26(4) CASE REPORT MANAGEMENT OF ECTOPIC VARIX WITH HISTOACRYL Adil Naseer Khan, Ismaa Ghazanfar Kiani, Muhammad Arshad*, Rania Hidayat, Khalid Said, Aamir Shehzad Department of Gastroenterology, Ayub Medical College, Abbottabad, *Azad Jamu Kashmir Medical College, Muzaffarabad, Pakistan Upper gastro-intestinal (GI) bleed is one of the most serious situations encountered in the emergency department. There is consensus regarding management of common causes of upper GI bleed but for rare causes no such consensus exists. We present a case of a 35 year old male who presented with 5–6 episodes of hematemesis associated with melena in 24 hours. On examination he was in hypotensive shock with no stigmata of chronic liver disease. Doppler studies showed portal vein thrombosis with cavernous transformation and varices in peripancreatic region and around duodenum. His upper GI endoscopy showed a large varix with ulceration in the duodenal bulb, indicating it as the source of bleeding. The varix was injected with 1cc of cyanoacrylate. The patient’s final diagnosis was non-cirrhotic portal hypertension secondary to portal vein thrombosis. At immediate and long term follow-up the patient had no complications. We conclude that cyanoacrylate injection effectively manages ectopic duodenal varices and can be used with a simple application technique. Keywords: Ectopic varices, hematemesis, upper gastro-intestinal endoscopy J Ayub Med Coll Abbottabad 2014;26(4):618–20 INTRODUCTION patient was not taking any medicines and had no known drug allergies.
