Purpose: Silicone oil (SO) is often used as an intraocular tamponade in repairs of retinal detachments. It may be associated with complications such as cataract, glaucoma, keratopathy, subretinal migration of oil, fibrous epiretinal and sub retinal proliferations, and oil emulsification. The purpose of this report is to describe a rare phenomenon of intraocular silicone oil migration into the cerebral ventricles, which may later be mistaken for intraventricular hemorrhages on neuroimaging. Methods: Case report with literature review. Results: A patient with a history of retinal detachment repair with intraocular SO presented with headaches. Neuroimaging revealed SO migration to the cerebral ventricles. The patient was treated conservatively with symptom management and headaches resolved. Conclusions: We present a case of intraocular SO migration to the cerebral ventricles and review the current literature. We also propose two mechanisms for this phenomenon.

AbstractObjective:To report the first case of treatment of Nager syndrome associated conductive hearing loss with bone-anchored hearing aids, in a three-year-old boy.Method:Clinical case report and current literature review regarding the use of bone-anchored hearing aids in the treatment of conductive hearing loss in children.Results:A three year eight month old boy with Nager syndrome was successfully treated for conductive hearing loss using bilateral bone-anchored hearing aids.Conclusion:This is the first case report of the use of bone-anchored hearing aids to treat Nager syndrome associated conductive hearing loss. Treatment was safe and successful in this case.

Background: Amyloidosis refers to a group of depositional diseases that are classified into two main types: systemic and localized. Large nodules of localized cutaneous amyloidosis of the nasal ala and surrounding skin are rare and the treatment is often unsatisfactory. Objective: We report a case of rapidly enlarging, localized, nodular cutaneous amyloidosis of the nose and the surrounding skin with a brief review of the current literature regarding treatment of this rare disease. Conclusion: Nodular amyloidosis can be treated successfully with cold steel excision in combination with carbon dioxide laser. Close followup of these patients is warranted, as nodular amyloidosis may be the precursor to systemic amyloidosis.

Subcutaneous metastases at presentation in cervical cancer are rare and they are associated with ominous prognosis. In this literature review, we present a case of skin metastasis and systematically review the current literature with the aim to discuss trends, treatment and survival of the reported cases.

Although penile keloid formation can be seen after major penile surgeries, it is rarely reported after circumcision and there is no standard method for the treatment of this complication. We present a patient who was admitted with a penile keloid mass that occurred after circumcision surgery and discuss the treatment we administered in light of the current literature review. A 7-year-old white boy was admitted to our clinic with a swollen stiff mass on the foreskin six months after circumcision. The parents indicated that no complication occurred in the early postoperative period. Physical examination revealed a white-colored stiff mass measuring approximately 2×1.5 cm in size along the penile ventral surface. Intralesional injection of 0.5 ml triamcinolone acetonide was administered for 12 weeks. At 9 months after circumcision, the keloid tissue was resected. Beginning from the first postoperative week, a silicone gel sheet and topical steroid application were administered for 8 weeks. At a 1-year follow-up, the penis had a satisfactory appearance.
