Optic disk drusen in children [PDF]

open access: yesSurvey of Ophthalmology, 2016
Optic disk drusen occur in 0.4% of children and consist of acellular intracellular and extracellular deposits that often become calcified over time. They are typically buried early in life and generally become superficial, and therefore visible, later in childhood, at the average age of 12 years.

Diagnostics of optic disk drusen in children

open access: yesOftalʹmologiâ, 2016
Diagnosis of deep optic disc drusen (OND) in children is difficult because they are not visualized ophthalmoscopically and often mimic a picture of stagnation, identifying the wrong tactics diagnostic and therapeutic actions.Materials and Methods ...

An atypical case of optic disk drusen with nerve fiber layer thickening

open access: yesEye and Brain, 2010
We report an atypical case of optic disk drusen (ODD). A 12-year-old girl complained of blurred vision in both eyes. However, visual acuities in both eyes were 20/20. Fundus examination revealed blurring of the optic disk margins and elevation of the optic disk in both eyes. Initially it was considered that the diagnosis would be papilledema.

Differential Change in Retina Structure and Function in Children and Adolescents with Drusens of the Optic Nerve Disk

open access: yesOftalʹmologiâ, 2018
The first histological and clinical description of the optic nerve drusens was given in the 19th century. Then authors considered drusens as congenital pathologies, and a study of 1999 showed that drusen is not the primary pathology, but the dysplasia of

Evaluation of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in a patient with bilateral optic disc drusen

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Oftalmologia, 2015
Optic disc drusen (ODD) is the accumulations of calcified hyaline-like material within the substance of the optic nerve head. Optic disc drusen, especially if it is bilateral, may mimic the clinical presentation of papilledema.

Retinal vascular parameters as AI-driven biomarkers for pulse wave velocity assessment: a telemedicine strategy for cardiovascular risk assessment

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine
Background Pulse wave velocity (PWV), known as the gold standard for evaluating arterial stiffness, is limited by device dependence. This study aims to explore the feasibility of retinal parameters to assess PWV based on artificial intelligence (AI ...

Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension Is Characterized by a Distinct Proteomic Profile

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives The pathophysiology of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is poorly understood and disease‐specific biomarkers are lacking. We aimed to shed light on IIH pathophysiology and identify disease‐specific biomarkers. Methods This prospective cross‐sectional cohort study included patients with new‐onset IIH and age‐, body mass index‐, and ...
