PCO formation is an attempt by the eye to make a new lens from remaining lens material.
The internal capsule is a white matter structure in the brain that carries signals between the cerebral cortex and the brainstem. It is divided into anterior and posterior limbs, with the posterior limb containing fibers that control movement and sensation. Damage to the internal capsule can result in motor and sensory deficits.

Capsules may be revealed by methods such as Maneval's method. This method utilizes negative staining, where the background is stained revealing an unstained structure: the bacterial capsule.
The retrolentiform part of the internal capsule is situated posterior to the lentiform nucleus while the sublentiform part lies below it. These regions serve as pathways for motor and sensory fibers traveling between the cerebral cortex and the brainstem.
Opacification of the sphenoid sinuses refers to an imaging finding where there is increased density or cloudiness seen on imaging studies like CT scans or MRIs. This can be due to various reasons such as inflammation, infection, or presence of a mass. Further evaluation and clinical correlation are needed to determine the exact cause.
Laser posterior capsulotomy, or YAG laser capsulotomy, is a noninvasive procedure performed on the eye to remove the opacification (cloudiness)
The adipose capsule helps hold the kidney in place against the posterior abdominal wall and cushions the kidneys against external blows
An aftercataract is a medical condition of clouding of the posterior lens capsule implanted in the eye in cataract surgery.
YAG capsulotomy is most often used for this type of cataract.
it occurs in the glomerulare (Bowman's) capsule.
The internal capsule is a white matter structure in the brain that carries signals between the cerebral cortex and the brainstem. It is divided into anterior and posterior limbs, with the posterior limb containing fibers that control movement and sensation. Damage to the internal capsule can result in motor and sensory deficits.

Opacification of the ethmoid air cells means that there is thickened, cloudy mucus in the ethmoidal sinuses. The ethmoidal sinuses are located in the ethmoid bone of the skull. There are two each on the left and right side. This finding is consistent with sinusitis.
Approximately 20% of patients who undergo cataract extraction with placement of an intraocular lens into the posterior lens capsule will eventually undergo a laser capsulotomy,
Using the SLT beam instead of the YAG beam for a posterior capsulotomy may not be effective. The YAG laser has higher energy levels and is specifically designed for creating the necessary opening in the posterior capsule. The SLT laser, typically used for trabeculoplasty, may not have the power to achieve the desired outcome for a posterior capsulotomy.
Posterior tibial tendon insufficiency is the most common cause of adult-flat foot deformities. The tendon degenerates and bony deformities begin to occur in later stages.
