Abstract

Purpose: Although ophthalmic manifestations of neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), including iris Lisch nodules and optic gliomas, have been well described, retinal involvement in these patients has yet to be established. Characterizing the relationship between NF1 and the retina is necessary to optimize outcomes for these patients.

Methods: Independent chart review of NF1 patients was conducted.

Results: Chart review yielded four patients, with a history of NF1, with subsequent retinal dialysis and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. These four patients presented to our institution with a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment secondary to a retinal dialysis with no history of trauma. These patients also demonstrated hyperreflective choroidal abnormalities on near-infrared reflectance imaging and optical coherence tomography.

Conclusion: Seeing that patients diagnosed with NF1 are susceptible to various ocular manifestations and pathological abnormalities, routine ophthalmic examinations are essential in maintaining their ocular health and minimizing morbidity.

神经纤维瘤病 1 型患者的视网膜透析和相关流变性视网膜脱离：病例系列。

目的：虽然 1 型神经纤维瘤病 (NF1) 的眼部表现（包括虹膜李施结节和视神经胶质瘤）已得到充分描述，但这些患者的视网膜受累情况尚未确定。为了优化这些患者的治疗效果，有必要确定 NF1 与视网膜之间的关系：方法：对 NF1 患者进行独立病历审查：结果：病历审查发现四名患者有 NF1 病史，随后出现视网膜透析和流变性视网膜脱离。这四名患者因继发于视网膜透析的流变性视网膜脱离而到我院就诊，无外伤史。这些患者还在近红外反射成像和光学相干断层扫描上显示出高反射性脉络膜异常：鉴于确诊为 NF1 的患者容易出现各种眼部表现和病理异常，常规眼科检查对于维护他们的眼部健康和减少发病率至关重要。
