RESUMEN
Forty-two patients (33 men, 9 women) with normal visual acuity admitted to an alcoholism rehabilitation programme were evaluated for colour vision using the automatized Fransworth-Munsell test (ChromopsR) and for central visual field using Friedmann's analyser. An early colour blindness without axis, i.e. a lack of colour discrimination, was often found. At the same time, in the more intoxications perimetric defects appeared in the 30 degrees area first centrally, then followed by arcuate superior scotomas.

The authors report a case of a patient with an ENT granuloma, treated successfully with cyclophosphamide and prednisone in 1976. After a complete remission lasting three years, the condition recurred in the form of Wegener's disease, presenting as a renal tumour. The authors discuss the relationship between these two conditions.
