Coriorretinite esclopetária / Chorioretinitis sclopetaria

O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar um caso de trauma ocular por projétil de arma de fogo, que atingiu e se alojou na cavidade orbitária, desenvolvendo coriorretinite esclopetária. Foram abordados o mecanismo fisiopatológico, os principais achados clínicos e de exames complementares, além das opções de tratamento. As características do caso relatado reforçam a importância de uma abordagem multidisciplinar no trauma ocular.

The objective of this study is to report a case of ocular trauma by gunshot bullet, which struck and lodged in the orbit, developing chorioretinitis sclopetaria. We also addressed the pathophysiological mechanism, the main clinical findings and laboratory tests, and treatment options. The characteristic of this case enhances the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in the ocular trauma.

The changes of multifocal electroretinogram of the affected and fellow eyes of the patients with central serous chorioretinopathy / 中华眼底病杂志

ObjectiveTo evaluate the retinal function with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) and the fellow eyes (mf-ERG).MethodsTwenty patients (40 eyes) with unilateral CSC, diagnosed by fluorescein angiography, were examined on each eye of the patients by mf-ERG multifocal electroretinography. The patients aged from 31 to 53 (13 men, 7 women; mean age, 41 years), and the CSC eyes had visual acuities of 0.2 to 0.8. None of the patients had significant abnormality in the fellow eyes with visual acuities of 0.8 to 1.5. Twenty-four healthy people (29 normal eyes with visual acuities of 1.0 and more and without any retinal diseases) were studied simultaneously as the normal control. The stimulus matrix of 61 hexagonal elements were grouped into 5 concentric rings from the fovea outward to 30? of the degree of visual field. The first-order responses of mf-ERG were recorded. The first negative wave (N 1-wave) and positive wave (P-wave) of the mf-ERG were measured. Amplitude intensities and latechies for the two configurations were calculated and compared.ResultsCompared with the control eyes, the responses were not only depressed severely in P 1- and N 1-wave amplitude intensities in the ring 1~3 in the CSC eyes with CSC (P0.05). There were no significant differences in N 1- and P 1-wave latencies in 5 concentric rings among the control eyes, the fellow eyes or the CSC eyes.ConclusionsCSC is a kind of macular disease involving both eyes. It may cause the decrease of retinal function in macular area of CSC eyes and also influence the retinal function in macular area of the fellow eyes. mf-ERG is a sensitive way in examining visual function.
