چکیده

purpose: to report the first case of concomitant optic nerve transection and chorioretinitis sclopetaria patient and findings: a 12-year-old boy with history of bb gun injury to his right eye was referred for loss of vision 8 months after the accident. visual acuity in the right eye was counting fingers at one meter with 3+ rapd. on slit lamp examination, right eye seemed normal except 1+ anterior vitreous reaction. fundus exam of right eye revealed a pale disc with superior retinal scar and diffuse submacular fibrosis compatible with chorioretinitis sclopetaria and advanced optic atrophy. orbital ct-scan showed transection of the optic nerve by the bb gun pellet at the orbital apex. conclusion: bb gun injury may cause concomitant optic nerve transection and chorioretinitis sclopetaria.

Time course profiling of the retinal transcriptome after optic nerve transection and optic nerve crush

PURPOSE A time-course analysis of gene regulation in the adult rat retina after intraorbital nerve crush (IONC) and intraorbital nerve transection (IONT). METHODS RNA was extracted from adult rat retinas undergoing either IONT or IONC at increasing times post-lesion. Affymetrix RAE230.2 arrays were hybridized and analyzed. Statistically regulated genes were annotated and functionally clustere...

Optic nerve transection in cats. II. Effect on vessels of optic nerve head and lamina cribrosa.

I n a prior communication we demonstrated that transection of the optic nerve of the cat with consequent retrograde neuronal degeneration did not lead to alteration of the ipsilateral retinal vasculature. We interpreted this to mean that retinal neuronal degeneration does not, of itself, cause an associated vascular degeneration. In the present study the vasculature of the optic disc region of ...
