Syndrome d'alcoolisme foetal et voile cornéen postérieur uniforme bilateral.

A boy aged 12 prematurely born presents several signs of fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS): mild mental retardation, staturoponderal delay, microcephaly, thin philtrum and vermillion of the upper lip. The ophthalmological aspects are: telecanthus, retinal vascular tortuosity, hypoplastic optic discs, hypermetropia, and an uniform, diffuse posterior haze on both corneas. This haze, which is not described till now as part of the syndrome, is not present in the other members of his family. Radiologic and biologic investigations (namely the profile of the urinary and seric amino acids, the urinary organic acids, and the research for mucopolysaccharides) are normal. Karyotype is normal as well as the research for fragile X which is negative.Case ReportsEnglish AbstractJournal ArticleSCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

Pseudo-ophthalmoplégie internucléaire bilatérale et dermatomyosite.

A 60 year-old woman complaining of diplopia presents an ocular motility disturbance mimicking internuclear ophthalmoplegia. Idiopathic dermatomyositis is diagnosed by the help of clinical, biological, electrophysiological and histological data. The outcome is favorable under corticotherapy. Ocular muscle involvement is rare in dermatomyositis. An overlap syndrome with another auto-immune disorder like myasthenia should be excluded in this kind of manifestation.Case ReportsEnglish AbstractJournal ArticleSCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
