Bilateral dysthyroid compressive optic neuropathy responsive to teprotumumab

European Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021
Thyroid eye disease is an auto-immune mediated orbitopathy which can cause dysthyroid compressive optic neuropathy. Traditional management of active thyroid eye disease includes temporizing high-dose steroids, orbital radiation and surgical decompression, which each possess significant limitations and/or side effects.

The role of optical coherence tomography in the evaluation of compressive optic neuropathies

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2019
Purpose of review Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive imaging tool routinely used in ophthalmology that provides cross-sectional images of the retina. Compression of the anterior visual pathways results in progressive thinning of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and macular ganglion cell complex (GCC) and ...

Rapamycin for Treatment of Refractory Dysthyroid Compressive Optic Neuropathy

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2007
We report a patient with dysthyroid optic neuropathy refractory to steroids and orbital decompression treated with rapamycin, a fibroblast and T cell inhibitor. Symptoms, visual acuity, color plate testing, and visual fields improved. Aside from hypercholesterolemia, no complication related to this therapy was observed.

Compressive and Infiltrative Optic Neuropathies

2008
In contrast to the meningiomas from intracranial extension or the ectopic orbital ones, primary optic nerve sheath meningiomas (ONSM) arise from the intraorbital optic nerve sheath and grow circumferentially around the optic nerve to result in an optic neuropathy by interfering with axonal transport and pial blood supply to the nerve. They constitute 1%

OCT and Compressive Optic Neuropathy

2016
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has provided new and important resources for quantification of retinal neural loss in many different optic nerve diseases including compressive optic neuropathies. As in other optic neuropathies OCT can be useful for diagnosis and follow-up of both optic nerve and chiasmal compressive diseases.

Wegener Granulomatosis Causing Compressive Optic Neuropathy in a Child

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2009
Wegener granulomatosis is an uncommon illness in children that is known to cause myriad ophthalmic complications, but it is rarely a cause of compressive optic neuropathy. A 17-year-old Hispanic boy with Wegener granulomatosis developed unilateral loss of vision, pain, and proptosis of the left eye.

A Case of Nodular Fasciitis Causing Compressive Optic Neuropathy

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2014
A 16-year-old girl with worsening vision, new OD visual field deficits, and tumor in right orbital apex underwent biopsy and surgical excision. Orbital imaging revealed an apical tumor causing bony erosion. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of nodular fasciitis. This is a rare diagnosis, and one that can mimic a neoplastic process. To the authors'

Optic Nerve Decompression for Compressive Neuropathy Secondary to Neoplasia

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1997
To evaluate the outcome of extracranial optic nerve decompression in patients with compressive optic neuropathy secondary to intracranial, paranasal sinus, or orbital neoplastic processes.A retrospective chart review and clinical follow-up of patients who underwent optic nerve decompression.Tertiary care referral center.During an 8-year period, 95 ...

Compressive optic neuropathy secondary to an allergic reaction to hyaluronidase

Archivos de la Sociedad Española de Oftalmología (English Edition), 2019
A 58 year-old woman presented with severe chemosis and ophthalmoparesis on her left eye 8hours after uncomplicated cataract surgery under sub-tenon anaesthesia. Recovery of extrinsic motility was observed after corticosteroid and antihistamine treatment, but a non-haemorrhagic papillary oedema and a concentric defect of visual field were found.

Optic neuropathy produced by a compressed mucocele in an onodi cell

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2003
To describe a patient with compressive optic neuropathy caused by a mucocele in an Onodi cell.Interventional case report.A 73-year-old man complained of sudden visual loss in the left eye 10 days after cataract surgery. Coronal computed tomography showed a homogeneous mass in an Onodi cell. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an oval-shaped lesion that
