Endoscopic optic canal decompression for compressive optic neuropathy

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2011
Compressive optic neuropathy is a rare condition that may be caused by trauma or non-traumatic events. Endoscopic techniques have evolved to provide an easier surgical approach to decompression. The aim of this study was to determine the endoscopic anatomy of the orbital apex and to identify the optimal targets for endoscopic optic nerve decompression.

Compressive Optic Neuropathy Secondary to Chronic Sinusitis

Optometry and Vision Science, 1988
ABSTRACT The paranasal sinuses surround the orbit on three sides. The thin bony walls of the sinuses are an ineffective barrier to the spread of infection to either the orbit or the intracranial cavity. In this report a case of compressive optic neuropathy secondary to chronic sinusitis is presented.

Compressive Optic Neuropathy

2011
Optic nerve compression results in progressive, and often painless, monocular vision loss. In this chapter, we review the clinical signs and common causes of compressive optic neuropathy. We discuss in more detail the imaging characteristics and management of optic nerve sheath meningioma.

Compressive Optic Neuropathy

2019
Optic nerve compression results in progressive, and often painless, vision loss. In this chapter, we begin by reviewing the clinical features of anterior and posterior compressive optic neuropathy. We next review the common causes of compressive optic neuropathy, which include orbital tumors (e.g., optic nerve sheath meningioma, optic glioma, and ...

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 ...

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 ...

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'

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.

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
