VASCULARIZATION OF THE PRIMARY OPTIC PATHWAYS

Vascularization of the primary optic pathways.

Vascularization of the Optic Pathway

TEis problem has been of only moderate interest to research workers, and publications and monographs on the subject have been sporadic, though a few well-known names must be cited here (Leber, 1865a, b, 1872, 1903; Magitot, 1908, 1947; Behr, 1935; Wolff, 1939, 1940, 1948). The findings being very diverse, it seemed appropriate to try to find experimentally the normal vascular anatomy of the opt...

Vascularization of the Optic Pathway*

WHEREAS from the myelo-architectonic point of view the chiasma is merely an organ of transit, this is not so from the vascular point of view; there seems to be a partial dissociation between the myelo-architecture and the angio-architecture. The vascularization of the chiasma has been investigated on the basis of 22 human specimens. The techniques used (dissection after fixation in 10 per cent....

A Note on the Vascularization of the Optic Nerve.

It has been brought to our notice by Dr. S. Singh Hayreh-to whom we are very grateful-that an error has appeared in the illustrations to our paper which was published in this Journal last January (Brit. J. Ophthal., 1963, 47, 21). Fig. 7, p. 27, which purports to be a transverse section of the anterior part of the human optic nerve, in which the vascular circulation is outlined by a Thorotrast ...

P46: Optic Neuritis as the First Manifestation of the Primary Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome

Optic neuritis is commonly associated with diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, infections, taking special drugs, etc. but recently we have observed a patient that presented retro bulbar optic neuritis as a manifestation of antiphospholipid syndrome. A 35 y/o young woman with the history of chickenpox admitted to the Qhaem hospital (Mashhad, Iran) with the c/o progressive pain and blurred visio...
