Sougen Yoshii aka Dr. Rohko of Tohgane had resided in presently called Tama of the Tohgane city from the closing days of the Tokugawa regime to the Meiji era. He worked as a medical doctor, a scholar of Chinese classics and an educator. In his younger days, he studied Chinese classics under Chason Miyamoto in Itako of Hitachi. Some years later, he further studied medicine under Dr.Souken Honma in Mito, who was known as the big boss of the compromised medicine between Chinese and European styles. After returning to his home in Shiizaki of the Musa district, he moved to Tama where he set up a medical practice and his school of Chinese classics. Faced with the Shincyuu fraction affairs which occurred mainly in the Kujyuu-Kuri district in Bunkyu 3rd, he joined the army of the Fukushima feudal clan as an army doctor. After that he continued to engage in medical practice as an accordant formal doctor of the Fukushima feudal clan providing medical treatment and education of Chinese classics to the members of the Tengu faction of Mito who were prisoners of the Fukushima feudal clan. Towards the closing days of the Tokugawa regime, many pupils entered his private school to study Chinese classics. After the Meiji Restoration, he returned to the positions of a general practitioner and a private school master. In Meiji 6th, he was appointed as the school master of the Tama Higashi primary school under the educational system of the Meiji goverment. Around this time, he retired from the position of a medical practitioner and devoted himself to education. After thirteen years as the school master, he resigned the post. Then he and his eldest son Ryouhei undertook to run Yoshii School, namely Nansoh Shibun Gakkai, where they mainly taught Chinese classics. Amongst the graduates of the school, there are brothers Shin-ichiroh and Naojiroh Warabi who endeavored to foster Sanbu-sugi and were known as significant poets of Araragi school tanka. Shortly after his pupils had constructed a memorial stone praising his virtue in Jyohgyohji of Tama, Sougen Yoshii passed away on September 20th in Meiji 42nd at the age of 76 years.

  Effect of cataract or glaucoma surgery on frequency doubling technology perimetry in patients with glaucoma

Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Chiba University Graduate School of Medicine, Chiba University, Chiba 260-8670.

We studied the effect of cataract or glaucoma surgery on visual field determined by frequency doubling technology (FDT) in patients with glaucoma before and after surgery. Patients with glaucoma were examined with FDT before and after 31 cataract surgeries or 31 glaucoma surgeries. Mean deviation significantly improved after cataract surgery in 30 eyes (surgical cataract group) or after glaucoma surgery in 31 eyes (surgical glaucoma group)that underwent surgery, but not in eyes that never underwent surgery (control groups). Intraocular pressure also decreased postoperatively in both surgical groups. Change of mean deviation (index for diffuse visual field loss) significantly correlated with percent reduction of intraocular pressure in the surgical glaucoma group without hypotony, but not in the surgical cataract group. No significant differences were found in pattern standard deviation in either group. Cataract surgery or glaucoma surgery improved visual field loss, as determined by FDT in patients with glaucoma. Glaucoma surgery improved visual field due to intraocular pressure reduction.

A 61-year-old woman presented with sudden headache and deep ocular pain on the right side. She had an episode of fever up to 39 °C about 1 week before her initial visit. The ocular pain was temporary, but soon after that, ptosis and a swelling of the lid developed in the right eye. She did not report tinnitus. The proptosis was 21 mm in the right eye. T2-MR imaging showed a diffuse, high density mass in the orbit, but the muscles and optic nerve on the right side were normal. A tentative diagnosis of orbital pseudotumor was made, oral predonisolone was prescribed. The follow-up MR images demonstrated a slow but certain recovery of the clinical signs.
