Visual field preservation after multisession cyberknife radiosurgery for perioptic lesions.
OBJECTIVE The restricted radiation tolerance of the anterior visual pathways represents a unique challenge for ablating adjacent lesions with single-session radiosurgery. Although preliminary studies have recently demonstrated that multisession radiosurgery for selected perioptic tumors is both safe and effective, the number of patients in these clinical series was modest and the length of foll...
متن کاملBenign Isolated Abducens Nerve Palsy
Cranial nerve VI (abducens nerve) innervates the lateral rectus muscle. Acquired isolated abducens nerve palsy in infants and children is a rare condition. A lesion of abducens nerve will result in esotropia greater at distance, an ipsilateral abduction deficiency, and a double vision. The abducens nerve palsy in a child may be caused by serious neurological diseases such as raised intracranial...
متن کاملIsolated nontraumatic abducens nerve palsy.
INTRODUCTION Abducens nerve palsy (ANP) is the most common isolated palsy. The injury of the abducens nerve can occur anywhere along its long course, so differential diagnosis of ANP occasionally demands thorough investigation to find the proper cause. PATIENTS Ten patients with isolated ANP are presented. The causes included nasopharyngeal carcinoma, diabetes, cholesteatoma of the inner ear,...
متن کاملMultisession CyberKnife Radiosurgery for the Treatment of Advanced-Stage Intracranial Extended Juvenile Nasopharyngeal Angiofibroma
Background: A case of a large advanced stage juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) treated with combined temporally and volume fractionated CyberKnife radiosurgery (CKRS) is presented. The optimal modality for treating advanced JNA continues to be controversial because of the complications associated with surgical resection and the potential delayed morbidity of radiotherapy (RT) in a pedi...
متن کاملHorner's Syndrome with Abducens Nerve Palsy
A 68-year-old male patient presented with a week of sudden diplopia. He had been diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer 8 months prior and had undergone chemotherapy with radiotherapy. Eight-prism diopter right esotropia in the primary position and a remarkable limitation in abduction in his right eye were observed. Other pupillary disorders and lid drooping were not found. After three weeks, the...
