A 63-year-old woman who had presented to the ophthalmology clinic for evaluation of cataracts was found to have white-yellow rings in both eyes. Over the past few years, she had noticed mild worsening of her vision. She reported no history of keratitis or ocular trauma. A lipid panel had been normal at a health maintenance visit 6 weeks before presentation. On ophthalmologic examination, peripheral opacities were observed in the lens of each eye, a finding consistent with age-related cataracts. A funduscopic examination was normal. Visual acuity was 20/30 in each eye. On slit-lamp examination, two concentric white-yellow rings were seen in each cornea. No corneal thinning or inflammation was apparent. Deposition of what substance is responsible for this finding? https://nej.md/IC04252024

In 2020, 60-year-old Gerald (Gerry) Polcari had a sudden gallstone attack that blocked his biliary system. Gerry's kidney and liver began to fail. As his condition worsened, Gerry learned that the only treatment would be a liver transplant. He received his liver transplant in February 2022.
Following his transplant, Gerry vowed to give back to Mayo Clinic through volunteer work. Before returning to full-time work, he volunteered on the transplant floor as a nurse aide. He’s also encouraging others to become organ donors.
“In January, I welcomed my first grandchild into this world — something that I was not sure I would ever live to see. No words can describe how incredibly grateful I am for my donor's final act of generosity."

It’s wonderful to be in person in Malaysia for the Q2 meeting of our Asia Pacific Regional Council!
On Day 1 the council members reviewed grant proposals for the new Conquer Cancer Foundation regional quality improvement grants in metastatic breast cancer, “Improving Metastatic Breast Cancer (mBC) Quality of Care and Equity via Meaningful Capacity Building in Southeast Asia.”
On Day 2, the council members will be visiting the International Cancer Corps site at Hospital Umum Sarawak in Kuching. They will have a tour of the hospital, observe a tumor board, and have lunch with hospital staff. It will be a great opportunity for the council to see the impact of the ICC program on this hospital, which has been able to offer palliative care training and more to its staff through the program. #ASCOGlobalImpact
