RESUMEN

Introducción: Aproximadamente un tercio de las cegueras infantiles son debidas a los traumatismos, siendo la principal causa de déficit visual y ceguera monocular en ninos. caso clínico: Se reporta el caso de un preescolar masculino de 2 años de edad quien presentó úlcera escleral en ojo izquierdo secundaria a quemadura química por pila de reloj cuyo motivo de consulta fue contacto con detergente, con cicatrización dificultosa debido a cuerpo extraño mineral retenido en fondo de saco conjuntival inferior durante aproximadamente un mes, contando desde el ingreso al área pediátrica. conclusión: Se reporta un caso inusual de úlcera escleral. Hasta el momento no se han reportado otros casos de úlcera escleral secundaria a quemadura química por pila de reloj y por objetos retenidos en fondo de saco conjuntival inferior, resaltando el manejo diagnóstico y la demora en la extracción del cuerpo extraño, representando una emergencia oftalmológica.


Introduction: Approximately one-third of childhood blindness is due to trauma, representing the leading cause of visual impairment and monocular blindness in children. case report: The patient is a 2 year old preschool boy, who presented scleral ulcer in his left eye secondary to chemical burn caused by watch battery. The reason for seeking medical care was difficult healing caused by a mineral foreign body retained in the lower conjunctival sac after the patient came in contact with detergent one month before the pediatric consultation. Discussion: An unusual case of scleral ulcer was reported. So far, no other similar cases have been reported. The diagnosis process and the delay for the removal of the foreign body are emphasized in this serious ophthalmologic emergency.

RESUMEN

Scleral ulceration after ocular surgery is a rare but serious complication. Determination of the underlying systemic and local causes is critical for treatment. An unusual case of ischemic scleral ulceration after vitreoretinal surgery in a diabetic patient is reported. Patient was successfully treated with a pedicle conjunctival graft.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: This study was performed to evaluate the effect of bovine pericardium used in scleral ulcer resulting from excision of pterygium and MMC. METHODS: Nine eyes of 9 patients who had painful scleral ulcer resulting from excision of pterygium and MMC were repaired with bovine pericardium (Lyoplant(R)). The rotation conjunctival flap was placed over the graft area. We measured the results and complications of treatment. RESULTS: Eight patients showed loss of eyeball pain, epiphora, and inflammation. There were visual improvement, good conjunctival healing after the procedure. One patient showed loss of overlying conjunctiva and progression of scleral ulcer because of pseudomonas infection. After control of infection and secondary procedure, there were good conjunctival healing, relief of the symptom and visual improvement. CONCLUSIONS: The authors suggest bovine pericardium appears to be an excellent substitute for autogenous or homologous tissue in scleral ulcer treatment.

RESUMEN

Mitomycin C is now being used not only as an adjunct in the surgical treatment of pterygia but also in glaucoma surgery. However, several serious complications that are possibly related to mitomycin C treatment have been reported. We report on a series of 8 patients(10 eyes) who experienced scleral ulcer after pterygium excision. The period from operation to onset of scleral ulcer was between 5 months and 20 years. Complications included corneoscleral perf oration(1 eye), scleral ulceration(9 eyes), corneal ulceration(2 eyes), complicated cataract(5 eyes) and uveitis(4 eyes). We used autogenous temporalis fascia to reinforce the weakened lesion of 10 eyes with scleral or corneoscleral ulceration. Three eyes underwent extracapsular cataract extraction and posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation after stable grafting. Grafts remained stable in 9 eyes over a mean follow-up of 10.8 +/- 10.4 months(3 to 37 months). One graft melted but regrafting salvaged the eye. Six of 10 eyes improved vision. All patients resolved their subjective symptoms after temporalis fascia grafting. We found autogenous temporalis fascia grafting is efficacious in both treating and preventing ocular perforation due to progressively destructive scleral ulceration.
