RESUMO

BACKGROUND: To report clinical and electrophysiology findings in Slovene patients with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). METHODS: Eight patients with LHON (11-26 years; one female and seven males) were examined in acute stages and at follow-up visits by means of Snellen visual acuity, Ishihara color vision, Goldmann or Octopus G2TOP perimetry, fluorescein angiography (FAG), pattern electroretinogram (PERG), visual evoked potentials (VEP) and genetic testing. RESULTS: Patients presented with typical LHON phenotype with bilateral visual acuity loss, abnormal color vision, central scotoma and hyperemic discs with no leakage on FAG. In the acute stage, electrophysiology was performed in 7/8 patients. The PERG P50 component was normal in 14/14 eyes, while the N95 component was reduced in 7/14 eyes. VEP wave P100 was reduced and delayed in 14/14 eyes. In this stage, temporal pallor of the optic disc was visible in 4/7 eyes with reduced PERG N95. At follow-up (1-11 months after), a reduced PERG N95 component was seen in 13/14 eyes and severely affected VEP in all eyes. In the only eye with a normal PERG N95, hyperemic optic disc was seen 5 months after visual acuity loss, while it was atrophic in all the others. Known mutations (14484T>C, 3460G>A) were found in 2/8 patients, while in others high-throughput sequencing identified new potentially pathogenic mutations. CONCLUSIONS: In Leber hereditary optic neuropathy, a reduced N95 component of PERG and severely reduced VEP P100 may be present already in the acute stage of disease, before optic disc pallor appears, suggesting primary dysfunction of retinal ganglion cells.
