The purpose of this case report is to describe the optical coherence tomography (OCT) features of a peripapillary choroidal neovascular membrane (PPCNVM) in an eye with morning glory disc anomaly (MGDA). A PPCNVM appears as a hyper-reflective mass in the peripapillary area. It should be distinguished from peripapillary hyper-reflective ovoid mass-like structures, which are markers of axoplasmic flow stasis. This case report describes the distinguishing features between the two. The presence of intraretinal cystic spaces are indicative of an active PPCNVM. In conclusion, MGDA can be associated with PPCNVM and OCT can be used in its detection.

ABSTRACT Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a syndrome of isolated elevated intracranial pressure of unknown aetiology. The IIH spectrum has evolved over the past decade making the diagnosis and management more challenging. The neurological examination in IIH is typically normal except for papilloedema and possible cranial nerve 6 palsy. Recent publications have highlighted skull base thinning and remodelling in patients with chronic IIH. Resulting skull base defects can cause meningo-encephalocoeles, which are potential epileptogenic foci. We describe the clinical and radiological characteristics of five IIH patients with seizures and meningo-encephalocoeles as the presenting manifestations of IIH spectrum disorder.

Characteristics of 110 patients with functional visual loss. Am J Ophthalmol. 2023;250 171–176. Five to 15% of patients who present to a neuroophthalmology practice with a complaint of vision loss are diagnosed with functional visual loss (FVL). To complicate matters, as many as 53% of these patients are also diagnosed with a coexistent organic cause for their loss of vision. To identify the characteristics of patients with FVL, the authors reviewed the records of 110 patients who were diagnosed with FVL at university-affiliated neuroophthalmology clinics. The majority (73.8%) of patients were women with a mean age of 37 ± 15 years. The most common complaints were decreased vision (71.8%) followed by visual field defects (21.8%). In more than half of the patients the complaint was bilateral. Visual acuity improved in 95.9% of patients when tested with fogging and/or a bottom-up technique. The most common visual field defects were generalised depression (42.5%) followed by concentric constriction/tunnel vision (12.5%). Many patients had concurrent mental illness including depression (23.6%) and anxiety (22.7%) as well as other mental health conditions. A history of preceding trauma was present in 35% of patients. These patients incur considerable costs to the health care system. They averaged 4.6 health care visits with 3.7 of these being to medical specialists. They also averaged 2.2 neuroimaging studies in addition to other testing. The authors point out the fact that there can be considerable savings in terms of cost and patient anxiety if these patients are referred promptly for neuro-ophthalmological consultation.

Peripapillary hyperreflective ovoid mass-like structures: Multimodal imaging-A review. Clin Exp Ophthalmol. 2023;51:67–80. Prior to the establishment of the Optic Disk Drusen Consortium the ovoid peripapillary structures detected on optical coherence tomography (OCT) were felt to be buried optic disk drusen. These structures have since been redefined as peripapillary hyperreflective ovoid mass-like structures (PHOMS) and identified as a manifestation of axoplasmic stasis. The authors discuss the characteristic findings of PHOMS on multimodal OCT and review the literature pertaining to the co-existence of PHOMS with diseases other than optic disk drusen. These include papilloedema, anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy, tilted disk syndrome, inflammatory demyelinating disorders as well as retinal and orbital diseases.

因此,对于神经眼科医生来说,在咨询因NAION而失去视力的患者时,注意到这一活跃而充满活力的争议是很重要的。Banwell B, Bennett JL, Marignier R, Kim HJ, Brilot F, Flanagan EP,等。髓鞘少突胶质细胞糖蛋白抗体相关疾病的诊断:国际MOGAD小组提出的标准。中华神经科杂志,2009;22:268-282。髓鞘少突胶质细胞糖蛋白(MOG)抗体相关疾病(MOGAD)的国际诊断标准最近发表在《柳叶刀神经病学》杂志上。MOGAD诊断标准为:(a)核心临床脱髓鞘事件:视神经炎;骨髓炎;急性播散性脑脊髓炎;大脑单灶性或多灶性缺陷;脑干或小脑缺陷;(b)基于细胞的MOG-IgG检测阳性(c)排除包括多发性硬化症在内的更好的诊断。与2015年发布的国际诊断标准不同,MOGAD的诊断取决于MOG-IgG检测阳性,并没有提出单独的血清阴性MOGAD分类。因此,MOGIgG检测的敏感性尚不清楚。然而,MOG-IgG检测的特异性已经得到了很好的研究,约为98%,在1:20和1:40的低滴度下特异性较低,具有阳性预测值。因此,与MOGAD诊断标准有一些细微差别,这在很大程度上取决于MOG-IgG检测不是100%特异性的知识。如果患者有较高的MOG-IgG滴度,存在核心临床脱髓鞘事件之一将足以满足诊断MOGAD的标准。然而,如果患者的MOG-IgG滴度较低,或者脑脊液中MOGIgG检测呈阳性,而血清中没有,则必须有临床或放射学支持结果提示MOGAD。例如,有助于诊断MOGAD视神经炎的检查结果包括双侧视神经炎、纵向视神经增强、神经周围视鞘增强和/或视盘水肿。还提供了支持MOGAD脊髓炎和脑发作的临床和放射学特征。总之,国际MOGAD标准为MOGAD的统一诊断迈出了一大步。未来可能会认识到MOGAD的其他临床特征,以扩大MOGAD的表型,但验证更罕见的非典型表现将是重要的,因为MOG-IgG结果可能出现假阳性,特别是在低MOG-IgG滴度的低检测前概率情况下。老年性黄斑变性患者痴呆或阿尔茨海默病的风险增加蔡宏辉,罗瑞瑞,梁洪,陈立林,黄洪,王建辉,李玉成。年龄相关性黄斑变性患者随后痴呆或阿尔茨海默病的风险:一项系统综述和荟萃分析中华眼科杂志,2009;37(4):391 - 391。作者进行了一项系统回顾和荟萃分析,以阐明老年性黄斑变性(AMD)与172 D. a .

This study was designed to determine if the use of oral fluorescein angiography is accurate and safe in differentiating papilloedema from pseudopapilloedema in paediatric patients. Two masked specialists (a paediatric ophthalmologist and retina specialist) reviewed the oral fluorescein angiogram images of 45 patients (90 eyes). They evaluated the optic discs and assigned them to three categories: leakage; no leakage; or “borderline” leakage of fluorescein, at least 30 minutes following ingestion of the medication. The determinations made by the masked observers were then compared with the final clinical diagnosis. There was excellent interobserver accordance in grading the images. Oral fluorescein angiography was found to be safe with no ocular, systemic or allergic reactions. The accuracy, however, was suboptimal with only 62 to 69% of images accurately differentiating papilloedema from pseudopapilloedema. However, the sensitivity at detecting leakage increased with the severity of disc swelling and the observers correctly identified papilloedema in 89% of patients who had Frisén grade 2 or 3 swelling.

Drs Gologorsky and Rosen have created a beautifully illustrated, high yield text that ought to become a standard reference for the field of ophthalmology. Offering a concise and comprehensive guide to 22 ocular imaging modalities in just over 200 pages, Principles of Ocular Imaging is meticulously organised from anterior to posterior, with clear divisions for the various specialities. Each section has pages filled with vibrant, high-resolution images of classic patient presentations. Accompanying each photograph are succinct descriptions of critical information for each disease process and the suggested imaging approach. The language is clear and would be helpful at all stages of training and practice as a primer or refresher. In terms of the structure of the book, the main sections are oculoplastics, cornea and refractive, retina, glaucoma, and neuroophthalmology. Now, several years away from my ophthalmology residency, I found the cornea and retina sections’ more recent updates particularly elucidating, from the applications of anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) as a ‘light biopsy’ tool in cornea, to the many uses of OCT angiography and adaptive optics in retinal practice. The key topics discussed in each section are:

Oculomotor nerve schwannoma: Case series and literature review. Surv Ophthalmol. 2022 Jul–Aug;67(4):1160–1174. There have only been 100 reported cases of oculomotor nerve schwannoma and, due to its rarity, there is no established guideline for the management of these tumours. Based on a review of the literature and their own cases, the authors have developed an algorithm that addresses the indications for treatment and their outcomes Eighty-four cases of oculomotor nerve schwannoma reported between 1980 and 2020 were included in this review. The mean age at diagnosis was 32.7 years (range 2 months to 78 years) with a male-to-female ratio of 2:3. Four of these patients were asymptomatic. The remaining patients reported symptoms of third nerve palsy including diplopia (n = 24) and ptosis (n = 30). Twenty-three of the patients experienced symptoms suggestive of ophthalmoplegic migraine with headache followed by brief periods of diplopia or ptosis. Other symptoms included those related to the mass effect of the tumour including cognitive changes, periorbital pain, and nausea. Patients with larger tumours (mean 27.3 mm) were primarily treated surgically, which frequently resulted in a complete palsy of the third nerve. Patients with smaller tumours did well with stereotactic radiosurgery, which resulted in a reduction in tumour size with no worsening of symptoms. Considering the above findings, the authors proposed the following algorithm. Patients who are asymptomatic can be monitored with no intervention. Patients with smaller tumours, who are symptomatic, can be treated with stereotactic radiosurgery followed by the prescription of spectacles containing a prismatic co
虽然骨眶的尺寸在检查组之间有显著差异,但在TED患者中发生DON的易感因素没有差异。TED+DON患者眶壁内侧角度的改变可能是MR增大的代偿机制,而不是DON发展的罪魁祸首。然而,内侧壁弯曲的增加可以作为肌肉体积增加的替代参数。虽然在这项研究中,大多数表现出DON的受试者肌肉体积明显增加,但在散点图数据中,一小部分受试者没有或几乎没有增加。尽管存在相关性,但仅凭肌肉体积和眼眶评估数据不足以区分TED患者的DON和非DON眼眶。这证实了这种疾病具有几种现有亚型的异质性,这需要额外的成像方式来描述。磁共振成像或正电子发射断层扫描可以更好地研究眼外肌的功能和形态学参数,其中炎症可以突出显示。在我们可以依靠放射检查来对TED患者DON发展的风险进行分层之前,定期的神经眼科监测和视野检查仍然是强制性的。Eshraghi B, Moayeri M, Pourazizi M, Rajabi MT, Rafizadeh M.甲状腺相关性眼病下眶壁和内侧眶壁减压后Bell现象减少:治疗患者的双刃剑。中华眼科杂志,2016,31(5):563 - 563。下直肌(IR)是影响甲状腺相关性眼窝病(TAO) Bell’s现象的主要眼窝肌。限制性肌病的IR纤维母细胞挛缩可能导致TAO患者的贝尔反射降低。在这组患者中,暴露性角膜病变连同严重的眼球突出可能导致视力丧失。除了药物治疗和放射治疗外,中重度TAO患者有时还需要眼眶壁减压。这是一项前瞻性研究,评估30例TAO患者眶下壁和眶内壁减压后贝尔氏现象的变化。结果在手术前和术后6个月的基线进行比较。术后贝尔现象的距离平均减少3.25±1.57 mm (p < 0.001)。调整后的贝尔现象也加重了1.58±2.13 mm (p < 0.001)。尽管术后突出眼明显减少(24.3±3.06 mm至22.3±2.27 mm, p < 0.001),但减压后角膜染色平均评分无统计学差异。下壁和内壁眶壁减压后Bell现象的恶化,假设是由于IR和周围软组织脱垂到打开的窦内,导致运动障碍。这项研究在术后发现了升高缺陷的增加,这一点得到了支持。未来的研究需要评估单独内侧壁减压或不干预下侧壁减压后贝尔现象的变化来证实这一假设。无论如何,临床医生必须提醒患者眶内壁减压后的潜在并发症,并在出现爆裂性骨折的患者中寻找类似的后遗症。Noel Chan 352摘要

After graduating from the Tohoku University School of Medicine in 1957 Dr Satoshi Ishikawa (Figure 1) joined the Department of Ophthalmology of the University of Tokyo School of Medicine. In 1958 he became an assistant professor at the Department of Ophthalmology, School of Medicine, University of Tokyo. In 1963 he was awarded a Fulbright Fellowship to study at the New York University. Two years later he became an associate professor there. After returning to Japan in 1965 he became a lecturer at the Department of Ophthalmology, Tokyo University Medical School. In 1971 he was appointed as the first department head of the Ophthalmology Department at the Kitasato University School of Medicine and served as the dean in 1994, the Director of the Kitasato Institute Hospital Environmental Centre in 1998, and Advisor at the Kitasato Institute in 2005. During his initial tenure at the University of Tokyo Dr Ishikawa was interested in Neuroophthalmology, strabismus/amblyopia, and toxicology. He continued in clinical and research work, mainly in these fields, at the New York University. For these endeavours he returned home after having numerous achievements. In 1959 he established the Japan Neuro-ophthalmology Group, which served as the foundation for the Japanese Society of Neuroophthalmology. Moreover, he developed the field of toxicology and focused on the chronic toxicity of organophosphorus. He wrote a paper on the effects of anticholinesterase drugs on esotropia and myasthenia gravis, the point of contact between Neuro-ophthalmology, strabismus/myopia, and toxicology. In 1968 he was awarded the 7th General Medicine Award for ‘Esotropia and Miotic Agents’, and in 1975 the 28th General Medicine Award for ‘Ocular Symptoms of Myasthenia Gravis and Cholinesterase’. Dr Ishikawa remained active in the development of electronic pupillometers and he later perfected the infrared electronic pupillometer, which has been applied in the clinical setting. His research and clinical works went beyond the field of Ophthalmology, covering topics such as visual display terminal syndrome, sick house syndrome, and chemical sensitivity. He also served as the chairman of the scientific research committee of the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare. In 1996 he delivered a special commemorative lecture at the 31st Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Environmental Medicine, where he was the first Japanese recipient of the Jonathan Forman Award. He also received the Japanese Ophthalmological Society Award in 1998 for his ‘Research on Ocular Toxicity of Organophosphorus’. Dr Ishikawa received the Japanese Ophthalmological Society Special Contribution Award in 2003 for his brilliant feats in the development of ophthalmic science. He actively pioneered the field of Neuroophthalmology in Japan by establishing the Japanese Society of Neuro-ophthalmology. He also served as councillor and director of the Japanese Ophthalmological Society, honorary member and director of the

is an inflammatory demyelinating disease affecting the central nervous system, which most commonly causes optic neuritis, transverse myelitis, and area postrema syndrome. Antibodies directed against aquaporin 4, a water channel expressed on the astrocytic membrane, are detected in approximately 80% of cases. In this article, the authors discuss a case of a 76-year-old woman with a 2-month history of confusion, dysar-thria, and progressive bilateral leg weakness, which was associated with adenocarcinoma. They conclude that signs of NMOSD in elderly patients should arouse the suspicion of a paraneoplastic aetiology. The authors report an 11-year-old girl who noted gradual visual loss in the right eye for 1 year to 20/100 in the right eye, compared with 20/ 20 in the left eye, with subfoveal yellow deposits in both eyes. Optical coherence tomography, electro-oculography, electro-retinography and colour fundus photographs illustrate the findings,which were in-keeping with Best’s disease, the second most common hereditary macular dystrophy. It is char-acterised by the accumulation of lipofuscin-like materials on the retinal pigment epithelium cell-photoreceptor interface. The disorder’s associated mutations may contribute to apoptosis of the retinal pigment epithelial cells by targeting Caspase-3 (a protein encoded by the CAPS3 gene) that may be one of the mechanisms in bestrophinopathies. and T1-WI A chi-square test used compare both sequences and the inter-rater agreement was calculated.

The disorder’s associated mutations may contribute to apoptosis of the retinal pigment epithelial cells by targeting Caspase-3 (a protein encoded by the CAPS3 gene) that may be one of the mechanisms in bestrophinopathies. and T1-WI A chi-square test used compare both sequences and the inter-rater agreement was calculated. Results : Thirty-five magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sessions were performed before treatment, including 19 post-contrast FLAIR in 17 patients and 25 post-contrast T1-WIs in 19 patients.
