Increased Ocular Pulse Amplitude Associated with Unilateral Dysgenesis of the Orbital Roof [PDF]
Introduction: Two patients (one with neurofibromatosis type 1) presented with unilateral ocular pulsation. Methods: A CT scan of the orbits revealed extensive dysgenesis of the orbital roof with herniation of the frontal lobe into the orbit in both cases.
