    Summary: Posterior segment complications of cataract surgery are encountered not only by the cataract and retinal surgeons but also by the general ophthalmologists in their daily practice. Yet, a definitive volume on this subject is not available. Written by experts in the field of cataract surgery and vitreoretinal surgery, this book is a comprehensive, updated practical guide on evaluation and management of patients with posterior segment complications following cataract surgery. This up-to-date reference covers all aspects of the field including evaluation of a patient, and all surgical procedures currently used in managing various complication in an organized systematic fashion. Necessary surgical modalities and approaches are thoroughly reviewed with ample illustrations for better understanding. Chapter dealing with surgical complications and failure has also been included in this book.

    The following correlations were revealed in the parallel study of leukocyte migration in vitro in the presence of a specific antigen and of spontaneous RNA and DNA synthesis in the cultured lymphocytes: 1) a direct correlation between the RNA and DNA synthesis in lymphocytes; 2) a close correlation between the antigen-induced migration and the levels of RNA and DNA synthesis. The effect of the antigen was evidenced by the inhibition or stimulation of leukocyte migration. A high ratio of RNA synthesis to DNA synthesis corresponded to the migration inhibition and a low one--to the migration stimulation. The ratio value varied mainly on account of the changes in the level of DNA synthesis. Participation of T and B cells in the regulation of the antigen-induced leukocyte mobility is discussed.
