  • Subdural hematoma in infants can be caused by abuse, and is thought to be more likely if subdural hematoma is associated with retinal hemorrhage and cerebral edema. In Japan, few doctors disagree that cases of subdural hematoma with retinal hemorrhage and cerebral edema with multiple findings on the body are more likely to have been caused by abuse rather than by household accident. On the other hand, in cases where there are no other significant physical findings, only subdural hematoma and retinal hemorrhage, there is a difference of opinion as to whether the injury was caused by an accident or abuse. The reason for this is that neurosurgeons in Japan promoted the concept that infants can develop subdural hematomas and retinal hemorrages due to minor trauma at home before the concept of abusive head trauma became known. In addition, the age distribution of subdural hematomas in Japan differs from that in other countries, with peaks at around 8 months, and the reason for this remains unclear. Therefore, the etiology of infant subdural hematoma in Japan needs to be investigated in greater detail.

  • 기도가 닫힌 상태에서 강하게 숨을 뿜어내는 발살바법은 망막의 정맥압을 상승시키고 이에 따라 망막 출혈을 유발시킬 수 있다. 힘든 배변을 경험한 55세 남자가 우안의 중심시력 감소로 인해 본원을 방문하였다. 전신적인 질환으로 고혈압, 만성 변비를 앓고 있었고 동공을 산대하여 정밀 안저검사를 한 결과 유두 한 개 정도 크기의 망막전 출혈과 황반와주위로 작은 크기의 망막내 출혈이 관찰되었다. 특별한 치료없이 망막 출혈은 자연 흡수되어 시력은 정상으로 회복되었다. 배변으로 인해 급작스런 시력감퇴를 나타낸 발살바 망막증을 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

  • Toxocariasis is one of the most common geohelminth infections in several parts of the world. We describe a rare case of ocular toxocariasis with secondary exudative retinal detachment treated with albendazole and an intravitreal dexamethasone implant. A 13-year-old boy with counting finger vision was diagnosed with retinal vasculitis and exudative retinal detachment in his right eye. Fundoscopic examination revealed retinal hemorrhage, retinal vasculitis, and exudative retinal detachment. Serological test using serum and intraocular aqueous humor were positive for anti-Toxocara specific IgG antibodies. He received repeated doses of intravitreal dexamethasone implants combined with oral albendazole. A sequential follow-up optical coherence tomography revealed that the retina was successfully reattached. His visual acuity subsequently improved to 20/400.

  • 목적: 유리체절제술을 시행받은 열공망막박리 환자에서 수술 당일 발생한 맥락막상강출혈 1예를 보고하고자 한다. 증례요약: 60세 여자 환자가 1주일 전부터 시작된 좌안 비문증과 광시증, 시력저하를 주소로 내원하였다. 좌안의 최대교정시력은 0.1이었고, 안저검사에서는 황반부를 침범하고 상이측 열공을 동반한 망막박리가 관찰되었다. 전신마취하에 좌안 백내장수술과 23 G 무봉합 유리체절제술, 14% C3F8 가스충전술을 시행하였다. 마취 회복 1시간 뒤 환자는 갑자기 극심한 좌안의 통증을 호소하였고, 압박안대 제거 후에 측정한 안압은 58 mmHg로 높았다. 통증은 10분 이내에 저절로 호전되었으며 다시 측정한 안압은 8 mmHg였다. 안저검사에서 맥락막상강출혈을 시사하는 적갈색의 융기된 병변이 관찰되었다. 압박안대를 한 채 엎드린 자세를 취하도록 하였고, 수술 다음 날에는 공막절개부위를 통한 출혈이 관찰되었다. 이후 출혈성 맥락막박리는 악화 소견 없이 지속적으로 감소하였으며 술 후 3주째에는 유리체강 내 100% C3F8 가스주입술을 추가 시행하였다. 술 후 3개월째 좌안 교정시력은 0.8로 호전되었고 망막은 유착된 상태로 안정적이었다. 결론: 유리체절제술 후 심한 안구통을 호소하는 경우에 맥락막상강출혈을 의심하는 것이 필요하다.

  • 1984년 12월부터 1992년 1월까지 망막분지정맥폐쇄환자 4명 8안을 대상으로 임상적 고찰을 하였다. 발병연령은 36세에서 65세까지였고, 반대쪽 눈에 발병하기까지는 3년 이하가 3명이였으며 여자가 3명이였다. 동반질환은 고혈압이 3명으로 가장 많았다. 합병증으로 망막신생혈관이 6안(75%)에서 발생하였으며 초자체 출혈을 갖는 5안중 3안에서 초자체 절제술을 시행하였다. 고혈압이 있는 60대 까지의 여성에서 발생한 망막분지정맥폐쇄는 반대쪽 눈에 대한 주의 깊은 추적검사가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

  • Beagle is one of the most popular laboratory animal in a dog. We investigated the incidence of spontaneous ophthalmic disease in Beagles in order to make basic data for quality control of Beagles in Korea. We surveyed 389 beagles from 3 different farms. The average prevalence rate of ophthalmic diseases was 19.3%. The prevalence rate of cataracts was higher than any other ophthalmic diseases, 7.5% and then in order of corneal scar(2.1%), retinal hemorrhage(1.5%), post-inflammatory retinal change(1.5%), cherry eye(1.0%), distichiasis(0.8%), entropion(0.8%), hypoplastic optic disc(0.8%), conjunctivitis(0.5%), retinal dysplasia(0.5%), asteroid hyalosis(0.3%), congenital eye anomaly(0.3%), corneal lipidosis(0.3%), conjunctival hemorrhage(0.3%), lens capsule pigmentation(0.3%), persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (0.3%), posterior synechia(0.3%), eyelid tumor(0.3%) and uveal cyst(0.3%) were diagnosed. There was a slight difference between male(24.8%) and female(17.4%) in prevalence rate of ophthalmic disease. The incidence of spontaneous ophthalmic disease was increased with age. These data would be useful for using Beagles as laboratory animals and standard reference for quality control of dogs.

  • Retrobulbar hemorrhage is a disastrous condition that can lead to permanent blindness. As such, rapid diagnosis and treatment are critical. Here, we report a patient who presented with retrobulbar hemorrhage following an orbital floor fracture. Restoration of inferior orbital wall with porous polyethylene implant was underwent. Four days after the orbital floor reconstruction, the patient smoked a cigarette outdoors in -3℃ weather. Cold temperature and smoking caused an increase in his systemic blood pressure. The elevated blood pressure increased intraorbital pressure to the extent of causing central retinal artery occlusion and exacerbated oozing. During exploratory surgery, 3 mL of hematoma and diffuse oozing without arterial bleeding were observed. Prompt diagnosis and treatment prevented vision impairment. Few studies have reported on the risk factors for retrobulbar hemorrhage. This case showed that daily activities, such as exposure to cold weather or tobacco smoking, could be risk factors for retrobulbar hemorrhage.

  • 망막분지정맥폐쇄는 안저출혈을 일으키는 중요한 질환의 하나로서 합병성 황반부 부종 및 망막신생혈관에 의한 초자체출혈로 인하여 시력장애를 유발하는 질환으로 전신질환중 고혈압과 가장 흔히 동반되나 당뇨병 혹은 혈액성 질환과도 동반되는 것으로 알려져있다. 초자체출혈의 경우 다른 원인에 의한 경우보다 초자체절제술에 의한 시력개선의 효과가 현저한 질환으로 심한 초자체출혈이 동반된 망막분지정맥폐쇄의 경우 평면부를 통한 초자체절제술 및 안저광응고술에 의한 수술적 처치가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Epiduroscopy is defined as a percutaneous, minimally invasive endoscopic investigation of the epidural space. Periduroscopy is currently used mainly as a diagnostic tool to directly visualize epidural adhesions in patients with failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS), and as a therapeutic action in patients with low back pain by accurately administering drugs, releasing inflammation, washing the epidural space, and mechanically releasing the scars displayed. Considering epiduroscopy a minimally invasive technique should not lead to underestimating its potential complications. The purpose of this review is to summarize and explain the mechanisms of the side effects strictly related to the technique itself, leaving aside complications considered typical for any kind of extradural procedure (e.g. adverse reactions due to the administration of drugs or bleeding) and not fitting the usual concept of epiduroscopy for which the data on its real usefulness are still lacking. The most frequent complications and side effects of epiduroscopy can be summarized as non-persistent post-procedural low back and/or leg discomfort/pain, transient neurological symptoms (headache, hearing impairment, paresthesia), dural puncture with or without post dural puncture headache (PDPH), post-procedural visual impairment with retinal hemorrhage, encephalopathy resulting in rhabdomyolysis due to a dural tear, intradural cyst, as well as neurogenic bladder and seizures. We also report for first time, to our knowledge, a case of symptomatic pneumocephalus after epiduroscopy, and try to explain the reason for this event and the precautions to avoid this complication.
