This task requires streching a rubber band around 16 nails on a wooden board. A penalty is calculated when the rubber band is not streched around a nail at the end of the task. Score = time (seconds) + number of missed nails x 10. Performance standard: Score = 62 sec [Kolkman 2008]

Scleral fixated IOLs in case of inadequacy of capsular support and scleral sutured capsular tension rings when adequate zonular support is inavailable have been recently used in cataract surgery. In these techniques, polypropylene suture is used and the suture ends over the sclera after the knot ha...s been formed, may erode the conjunctiva and become exposed. Thus, the erosion may lead to the development of endophtalmitis. In order to prevent the aforementioned complication, scleral flaps, otologous cornea, duramater or fascia lata patches have been used to cover the knot and rotation of the knot into the tissues has been described.

University Hospitals Neurological Institute will host a live webcast to demonstrate the removal of a brain tumor that doctors believe is causing epileptic seizures in a middle-aged man.

An MRI showed what appears to be a glioma (tumor) near a part of the brain that controls muscle movement, called the motor strip. Studies have shown that complete removal can cure the seizures and improve quality of life and survival, but this is difficult to do with conventional technology without harming the surrounding normal brain because it's difficult to determine where tumor ends and normal brain begins.
