Retinal Detachment: Principles and Practice provides a historical review of current information on the diagnosis and treatment of retinal detachment. It is intended as both an introduction for graduate students in ophthalmology and a concise review or reference for practicing ophthalmologists. The volume defines the types of retinal detachments, their classifications and causes, and covers preoperative examination, preoperative management, prophylactic procedures, surgery, complications of surgery, and results of reattachment surgery. It also includes a historical introduction, suggested readings at the end of each chapter, and the classic article 'The Technique of Binocular Indirect Ophthalmoscopy,' by Morten L. Rosenthal.

Diabetes mellitus is the seventh leading cause of death in the United States; diabetic patients have a 50% chance of undergoing a surgical procedure during their lifetime, and operations in this patient population have been associated with a reported mortality of 4% to 13%. Careful planning of operative management and perioperative care must be taken into account when scheduling surgery for diabetic patients, especially patients taking insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents. Debate continues and inconsistencies remain regarding the management of both diabetes and hyperglycemia in the surgical setting. The review covers the evaluation of the diabetic patient, preoperative management, intraoperative management, postoperative management, total parenteral nutrition and blood glucose, cardiovascular and renal assessment, infection, and special populations.  This review contains 2 figures, 5 tables, and 21 references Keywords: Glucose, Hyperglycemia, perioperative period, surgery, diabetes mellitus, surgical site infection, preoperative management, postoperative management, wound healing

Possible Cause

Introduction. Many factors have been indentified as a possible cause of rectal prolaps. Despite the fact that it is not a lifethreating condition, its clinical presentation varies, and sometimes it can present as an emergency. We presented a patient with prolapse of an unusually large segment of the rectosigmoid colon caused by chronic constipation, as an incarcerated segment repaired surgically. Case report. A 62-year-old female patient was referred to the Emergency Department in bad condition with severe pain in the perianal region. On examination a complete rectal prolaps as well as a part of sigmoid colon were found. Macroscopically, the prolapsed segment appeared edematous, livid, with ulcerations. An attempt to manually reduce prolapse failed, therefore resection of 50 cm of sigmoid colon with rectopexy had to be performed. No complications occurred and the patient was without symptoms six months later. Colonoscopy did not reveal any abnormality. Conclusion. Although the preoperative management and preparation of the patient was limited, emergancy surgical intervention for such a case was the strategy of choice due to magnitude of the prolapsing segment. It provided a successful and permenant solution.
