The diagnosis of Horner's syndrome is divided into two stages: (1) the recognition of the sympathetic deficit, and (2) the localization of the lesion. The second step is of vital importance in the management of the patient with Horner's syndrome. If the lesion is preganglionic, the risk of malignancy is high; the patient should have cervical spine and chest roentgenograms (PA, lateral and apical lordotic) and perhaps a referral to a surgeon. If the lesion is postganglionic, it is most likely a benign vascular headache syndrome and the patient should go to a neurologist.

The problem of microscope sterility during ophthalmic microsurgery has generally been managed by using sterilizable handle protectors, or by using some form of plastic sterilizable drape for the entire microscope. Both of these systems have disadvantages. A simple and effective alternative which has been designed for Zeiss operating microscopes and can be modified for other types of instruments is presented. No modification of the microscope is required. The instrument consists of two pieces: a metal bracket which mounts in the accessory shoe of the operating microscope, and a rigid plastic sterilizable portion which is readily attached on the microscope from below with three sterilizable screws. The entire assembly can be attached within 15 seconds. It affords complete sterility protection of the operative field; it provides a sterile surface for handling and moving the microscope; it does not interfere with accessory lighting systerms; and it allows open access to external accessories such as cameras and observer tubes.

Sixty-seven patients with toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis who were treated with periocular injections of depot forms of corticosteroids were studied in an attempt to determine (1) whether patients who did poorly on this regimen could be differentiated predictively from those who responded in a more favorable fashion, and (2) whether a treatment regimen that would allow the safe use of periocular depot corticosteroids in patients with toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis could be delineated. The study did not reveal any reliable way of predicting which patients would be good risks for the use of periocular injections of depot corticosteroids. It does suggest that the concurrent use of antitoxoplasma agents might protect patients in such a way that periocular depot corticosteroids would not worsen their disease. For the reasons outlined, the use of periocular injections of depot corticosteroids in toxoplasmic uveitis must be approached with great caution in the future.
