RESUMEN
En la actualidad se cuenta con escasos reportes de casos clínicos de pacientes con metástasis coroidea sintomática como la presentación inicial de cáncer de pulmón. En este reporte describimos el caso de una paciente con adenocarcinoma de pulmón, la cual fue diagnosticada por síntomas iniciales oculares consistentes en pérdida visual progresiva y presencia de escotomas en ambos ojos, por lo que se le realizaron exámenes adicionales que llevaron al diagnóstico de cáncer de pulmón con metástasis coroidea. El pronóstico de estos pacientes es pobre, en la mayoría de los casos se trata de tumores en estadios avanzados de la enfermedad.
Currently there are few clinical case reports of patients with symptomatic choroidal metastasis as the initial presentation of lung cancer. In this report, we describe the case of a female patient with lung adenocarcinoma, who was diagnosed due to initial ocular symptoms consisting of progressive visual loss and the presence of scotomas in both eyes, so additional tests were performed leading to the diagnosis of lung cancer with choroidal metastasis.

Resumo Relatamos aqui o caso de E.R.S.S., feminino, 43 anos, diagnosticada com coloboma de retina e coroide bilateral, afim de enfatizar a importância dos exames pré-operatórios, até mesmo de uma boa tomada de projeção luminosa, a qual está sendo muitas vezes relegada a um patamar desprezível dentro da prática oftalmológica. Salientamos também que o exame ultrassonográfico prévio à indicação cirúrgica é de suma importância, no entanto, esse deve ser realizado por profissional experiente e sua correta interpretação deve ser exaustivamente procurada para que erros interpretativos não se transformem em conduta clínico cirúrgica inadequada e consequentes danos, muitas vezes, irreparáveis. Considerando-se todos os aspectos e complicações do coloboma já citados nesse relato, a conduta diante de um diagnóstico dessa malformação deve ser: pesquisar associação com outras doenças oculares e/ou sistêmicas (CHARGE: coloboma, cardiopatia congênita, atresia de coana com múltiplas anomalias), realizar tratamento e acompanhamento em caso de complicações (Ex. descolamento de retina, ambliopia e estrabismo) e prevenção é feita através de aconselhamento genético.
Abstract We report here the case of E.R.S.S. female, 43 years old, diagnosed with bilateral coloboma of choroid and retina, in order to emphasize the importance of preoperative exams, even a good shot of light projection, which is often being relegated to a negligible level in ophthalmological practice.We emphasize also that the ultrasound examination prior to the surgical indication is of paramount importance, however,this should be performed by experienced professional and the correct interpretation must be thoroughly searched for interpretative errors not become inadequate surgical clinical conduct and consequential irreparable damage. Considering all aspects and complications already mentioned in this report, coloboma to conduct before a diagnosis of this malformation should be: search for association with other eye diseases and/or systemic (CHARGE: coloboma, congenital heart defect, atresia of posterior nasal apertures with multiple anomalies), performing and monitoring treatment in case of complications (E.g. retinal detachment, amblyopia and strabismus) and prevention is made through genetic counseling.

ABSTRACT A 42-year-old woman was admitted to our clinic with a complaint of glare in both eyes. Biomicroscopic examination of both the eyes revealed iris and lens colobomas in the inferior quadrant. Fundus examination of the right eye revealed an oval and gray inferotemporal optic pit and two choroid colobomas in the inferior quadrant. In the left eye, two choroid colobomas were detected that were inferior to the optic nerve head. Furthermore, a 21-year-old man presented to our clinic for a routine ophthalmologic examination. Bilateral biomicroscopic examination was normal. Fundus examination of the left eye revealed an oval and gray inferotemporal optic pit and a choroid coloboma that was inferior to the optic nerve head. Here we describe optic pits co-occurring with iris, lens, and choroidal colobomas. On the basis of these cases, a defect in the closure of the embryonic fissure is the most plausible etiology of the optic pit.
RESUMO Uma mulher de 42 anos de idade foi internada em nossa clínica com queixa de ofuscamento em ambos os olhos. O exame biomicroscópico revelou coloboma de íris e cristalino no quadrante inferior em ambos os olhos. O exame de fundo do olho direito revelou um fosseta óptica oval e acinzentada na região inferotemporal e dois colobomas coroide no quadrante inferior. No olho esquerdo, dois colobomas de coroide foram detectados inferiormente à da cabeça do nervo óptico. Outro homem de 21 anos apresentou-se em nossa clínica para um exame oftalmológico de rotina. O exame biomicroscópico foi normal, bilateralmente. O exame de fundo do olho esquerdo revelou uma fosseta oval e acinzentada de nervo óptico óptico inferotemporal e um coloboma coroide inferior à cabeça do nervo óptico. Nestes relatos nós descrevemos fossetas ópticas ocorrendo simultaneamente com colobomas de íris, cristalino, e coroide. Com base nestes casos, o defeito no fechamento da fissura embrionária é uma provável etiologia da fosseta óptica.

Dobras de coroide é considerado o achado fundoscópico mais prevalente nos casos de tumor orbitário. São ondulações no epitélio pigmentado da retina, membrana de Bruch, porção interna da coriocapilar e que, em alguns casos, podem acometer a retina neurossensorial, sendo então chamadas de dobras coriorretinianas. Diversas condições, oculares e sistêmicas, cursam com dobras de coroide e devem ser corretamente investigadas e, caso necessário, prontamente tratadas. Nesta revisão iremos abordar os aspectos gerais das dobras de coroide, enfatizando suas características nos seguintes exames de imagem: Retinografia, autofluorescência, angiofluoresceínografia e tomografia de coerência óptica.
Choroidal folds is considered the most prevalent funduscopic finding in cases of orbital tumors. They are ripples in the retinal pigment epithelium, Bruch's membrane, the inner portion of the choriocapillaris and in some cases, may affect the neurosensory retina, and then called chorioretinal folds. Several ocular and systemic conditions are associated with the finding and must be properly investigated and, if necessary, promptly treated. In this review we discuss the general aspects of choroidal folds, emphasizing their characteristic features in the following ophthalmological imaging tests: Retinography, fundus autofluorescence, fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography.

Uveal effusion syndrome is characterized by annular ciliochoroidal detachment, shifting non-rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, unremarkable inflammation in the anterior eye segment and normal intraocular pressure. A 36-year-old Caucasian hypermetropic male presented in the eye casualty with a week history of curtain like effect in front of his left eye associated with worsening of vision and flashing lights. Left fundus examination revealed retinal detachment with smooth shaped elevation superonasaly and detached retina inferiorly confirmed on ultrasound B-scan with no tobacco dust in the anterior vitreous. Diagnosis of uveal effusion syndrome was made. Lamellar sclerectomies in the two quadrants were performed. Fourteen months postoperatively, the left eye choroidal effusion gradually settled down and at 18 months the retina flattened. Early diagnosis, close follow-up, and appropriate management are mandatory to improve or maintain visual function in such patients

An 18-year-old man presented with poor vision in both eyes that had been present since birth. Central corneal opacity and inferior peripheral sclerocornea with iridocorneal adhesion were observed upon anterior segment examination of the left eye. A coloboma of the iris was observed in the patient's right eye, which manifested as a small notch in the inferior pupillary margin and cataract. Fundus examination of the right eye showed a large inferior chorioretinal coloboma involving the optic disc and macula. It is essential to examine the fundus in detail, if possible, in cases of Peters' anomaly, because these patients may have congenital anomalies such as chorioretinal coloboma.

In this retrospective report, we present two cases of unilateral Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada [VKH] disease. These patients were evaluated with clinical, ophthalmological and laboratory examinations. Their response following corticosteroid administration was evaluated. Both patients had the characteristic clinical features of VKH involving only one eye, including disc edema, choroidal striae, multiple sub retinal yellow lesions and exudative retinal detachment. These cases indicate that the clinical and angiographic features were typical of VKH disease despite the unilateral involvement

Achondroplasia is a congenital disorder resulting from a specific disturbance in endochondral bone formation. The ophthalmic features reportedly associated with achondroplasia are telecanthus, exotropia, inferior oblique overaction, angle anomalies and cone-rod dystrophy. This is first report of chorioretinal coloboma in achondroplasia. An 8-year-old female was diagnosed with a developmental delay, known as achondroplasia, seven months after birth. Upon her initial visit, visual acuity was 0.3 in both eyes. The patient had telecanthus but normal ocular motility. Findings were normal upon anterior segment examination. Fundus examination of both eyes revealed about 1,500 microm sized chorioretinal coloboma inferior to the optic nerve head. Upon fluorescent angiography, there was chorioretinal coloboma without any other lesions. Afterward, there was no change in the fundus lesion, and best corrected visual acuity was 0.6 in both eyes. Chorioretinal coloboma is associated with choroidal and retinal detachment. As chorioretinal coloboma and achondroplasia are developmental disorders in the embryonic stage, early detection and regular ophthalmologic examination would be essential in patients with achondroplasia.

We report a rare case of retinal detachment in colobomatous macrophthalmos with microcornea syndrome. A 25-year-old female who had suffered from poor vision in her left eye since early childhood and high myopia in her right eye (-11 D) visited our clinic because of a sudden deterioration of vision. Examination of the anterior segment showed microcornea with coloboma of the inferior pupil margin in the left iris. Fundus examination of the left eye revealed an inferior choroidal coloboma extending from the optic disc and macula. The patient also had total bullous retinal detachment. Pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade was performed, and the retina was reattached. In the very rare condition of colobomatous macropthalmos with microcornea, retinal detachment may develop. Pars plana vitrectomy with additional silicone oil tamponade may be performed to treat this condition.

Neste trabalho relatam-se os achados da síndrome de Aicardi, um distúrbio de etiologia desconhecida composta por espasmos múltiplos, lacunas coriorretinianas e agenesia do corpo caloso. Os autores apresentam um caso desta síndrome, com clínica e achados de ressonância magnética característicos. A doença, apesar de considerada rara, apresenta achados de imagem característicos. Nos últimos anos, a importância da ressonância magnética tem aumentado expressivamente,uma vez que demonstra outros achados além da agenesia do corpo caloso, tornando o papel do radiologista muito importante na suspeição diagnóstica desta enfermidade.
The authors report the findings of Aicardi syndrome, a disease of unknown etiology composed of multiple spasms, chorioretinal lacunae and agenesis of the corpus callosum. They present a caseof Aicardi syndrome with characteristic clinical presentation and magnetic resonance imaging findings. The disease, despite being considered rare, has characteristic imaging findings. Over the past years magnetic resonance imaging has improved its ability in demonstratingother findings besides agenesis of the corpus callosum, making the radiologist's role very important in the diagnostic suspicion of this disease.

CONTEXT: Vitreous surgery has been advocated as an alternative treatment of selected retinal detachments with choroidal colobomas. AIM: To study the long term anatomical and visual outcome of choroidal coloboma with retinal detachment managed by pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade. SETTING AND DESIGN: Retrospective study conducted in a tertiary eye care hospital. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fourty two eyes of 40 patients with retinal detachments related to coloboma of the choroid without any peripheral breaks were analyzed. All eyes underwent pars plana vitrectomy with internal tamponade using silicone oil. Endolaser was performed along the coloboma border. Silicone oil was removed in 50% of patients. The main outcome measures were retinal reattachment and visual recovery. SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Science), version 10.0 was used for analysis. RESULTS: The retina in all cases (100%) undergoing vitrectomy were completely reattached intra-operatively. After a mean follow-up of 14 months, 37 (88.1%) eyes had attached retina. The best corrected visual acuity was 10/200 or better in 33 (78.4%) eyes. The best corrected visual acuity improved from a preoperative median of counting fingers (range 20/40 to perception of light) to median best corrected visual acuity of 20/200 (range 20/40 to perception of light) at the end of 6 months. Of the 50% (21) cases that underwent silicone oil removal, two eyes had re-detachment of retina. CONCLUSION: Pars plana vitrectomy along with silicone oil tamponade for retinal detachment related to choroidal coloboma improves the long-term anatomical and visual outcome.

As anomalias congênitas do disco óptico podem estar associadas a anormalidades vasculares intracranianas. Relatamos o caso de um paciente de 9 anos com anomalia do disco óptico tipo morning glory em um olho e coloboma do disco óptico e coróide infrapapilar no outro. O paciente apresentava história pregressa de ataque isquêmico transitório e angioressonância cerebral consistente com doença de moyamoya. O presente relato ilustra a importante associação das anomalias congênitas do disco óptico com a doença de moyamoya. O exame fundoscópico de pacientes suspeitos pode trazer subsídios ao diagnóstico clínico, abrindo a possibilidade do reconhecimento precoce das anormalidades vasculares intracranianas encontradas no moyamoya, aumentando a perspectiva de eventual intervenção profilática frente às potenciais complicações.

CHARGE syndrome, first described by Pagon, was named for its six major clinical features. They are: coloboma of the eye, heart defects, atresia of the choanae, retarded growth and development including CNS anomalies, genital hypoplasia and/or urinary tract anomalies, and ear anomalies and/or hearing loss. We experienced three cases of CHARGE syndrome who displayed ocular coloboma, heart defects, retarded growth and development, and external ear anomalies, and we also review the previously reported literature concerning CHARGE syndrome.
