SO is schemed to be cleared within several weeks or months after tamponade, but it’s inevitable for permanent or residual SO in a fraction of patients under extremely complicated clinical conditions. Here, we presented a case of silicone oil removal after 10 years, mainly to observe the disadvantages of long-term persistence. Case presentation: A 69-year-old female with pathologic myopia denied trauma history who had undergone pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), retinal reattachment, laser, and silicone oil tamponade in 2012 presented to our hospital with eye pain and headache, no light perception of her right eye for six months. The slit-lamp biomicroscopy examination for OD indicated evident conjunctival congestion, new blood vessels invasion to the limbus, foggy edema of corneal epithelium, folds of Descemet’s membrane and corneal endothelial edema. There were obvious emulsified silicone oil particles above the anterior chamber. Goldmann’s applanation tonometry test revealed the intraocular pressure was as high as 45/17mmHg. From ocular ultrasound, we saw that the vitreous cavity was filled with silicone oil in right eye;as for the left eye, it showed marked axial elongation and posterior scleral staphyloma. We were unable to obtain more information from fundus photography and macular optical coherence tomography (OCT) due to edema of the cornea. After the silicone oil was removed successfully from her vitreous cavity, although there was no improvement in the patient’s vision (no light perception), she was still satisfied with the relief from eye pain and headache benefited from the reduction of high intraocular pressure (Goldmann’s intraocular pressure decreased to 19/14mmHg). Conclusion: Patients after PPV should remove silicone oil in time to avoid corneal damage, intraocular hypertension, lens opacity and retinal damage induced by long-term silicone tamponade.展开更多

Moxibustion on herbs, a common complementary and alternative medicine approach, is frequently used for treating AR in clinical practice. Western medicine is good at quick symptomatic relief,while offer little or no sustainable and steady long-term effect. Little established evidence is available to support the long-term effectiveness of moxibustion on herbs for AR.Objective: This study is a randomized controlled trial to assess the long-term effectiveness of moxibustion on herbs in moderate-severe persistent AR population.Methods: The study sample size is 56 patients. Eligible patients with moderate-severe persistent AR will be randomized into a moxibustion on herbs combined with conventional treatment group(MOHCT group) and a conventional treatment group(CT group) in a 1:1 ratio. Patients in the MOHCT group will receive a 30-min moxibustion on herbs treatment on Zhiyang(至阳 GV 9), Dàzhuī(大椎 GV 14) and bilateral Shenshu(肾俞 BL 23), Fèishū(肺俞 BL 13) for a total of 12 times on the basis of conventional treatment, while those in the CT group will receive conventional treatment alone. The primary outcome measure is VAS score for total nasal symptoms, which will be obtained via a self-recorded AR diary. The secondary outcome measures include the average occurrence of symptoms per week, use of medication and Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire(RQLQ).Discussion: The objectives of this study include(1) to evaluate the long-term effectiveness and safety of moxibustion on herbs for treating AR;(2) to evaluate whether moxibustion on herbs can reduce the frequency of AR symptoms in patients with moderate-severe persistent allergic rhinitis. The finding of this study will provide evidence on the long-term effectiveness of moxibustion on herbs for moderatesevere persistent AR.展开更多
