To compare visual acuity, refraction, Schirmer test, tear break-up time (TBUT), esthesiometry, optical quality, higher order aberrations and posterior corneal elevation measurements before and after small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK).

Mucormycosis is a rare deep fungal infection that develops mainly in immunosuppressed patients, being unusual the gastrointestinal presentation. The adequate treatment consists in rapid and aggressive surgical debridement, along with initial adjuvant treatment with liposomal amphotericin B. Despite recent advances in the management of this disease, the prognosis is poor, with a high mortality rate. We will present a case of a 37-year-old male patient, who underwent a combined pancreas and kidney transplant, with gastric perforation secondary to deep mucormycosis.

Pneumopericardium is an unusual condition defined by the presence of gas into the pericardial sac. Gastric perforation into pericardium is a complication of gastric ulcer with high mortality. In this clinical case, we describe the condition of a male with a silent gastric ulcer, which penetrated into the pericardium, developing pneumopericardium and purulent pericarditis as a complication.

The optimum number of screws in a volar locking plate (VLP) for distal radial fractures (DRF) fixation has not been established. We conducted a retrospective observational study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the number of used screws and the post-operative results provided by the patient-rated wrist evaluation (PRWE) questionnaire.
