Retinal Vascular Occlusions
نویسندگان
چکیده
The hallmark of clinical presentation in the retinal occlusive disease is painless loss of vision, which can be asymptomatic, gradual with only mildly reduced visual acuity, or sudden and reduced to counting fingers depending on the extent of the irrigation area of the affected vessel. The clinical presentation aids in distinguishing the type of the occlusion, which may be classified according to the anatomical site of the occlusion.

Vascular Occlusions following Ocular Surgical Procedures: A Clinical Observation of Vascular Complications after Ocular Surgery
BACKGROUND Ocular vascular occlusions following intraocular procedures are a rare complication. We report a case series of patients with retinal vascular occlusions or anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) after anterior and posterior segment surgery and demonstrate possible risk factors. METHODS Observational case series. RESULTS In ten patients, vascular occlusions were observed withi...
متن کاملRelationship between retinal vascular occlusions and incident cerebrovascular diseases
Several studies investigating the role of retinal vascular occlusions, on cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) have been reported, but the results are still inconsistent. We therefore sought to evaluate the relationship between retinal vascular occlusions and CVD.We systematically searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, and ScienceDirect databases through January 31, 2016 for studies evaluating the ef...
متن کاملBranch retinal vein occlusion.
Retinal vein occlusions (RVO) are the second commonest sight threatening vascular disorder. Branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) are the two basic types of vein occlusion. Branch retinal vein occlusion is three times more common than central retinal vein occlusion and- second only to diabetic retinopathy as the most common retinal vascular cause of visu...
متن کاملChorioretinal vascular occlusions with latex microspheres ( a long - term study ) . Part II
The results of a long-term study (3 to 9 months) of chorioretinal vascular occlusions resulting from injection of latex microspheres of known sizes are reported. Isolated occlusions of small retinal vessels (capillaries and precapillary arterioles) resulted in no histologic changes in the retina. Occlusion of large retinal vessels (arterioles) caused atrophic changes in the inner retinal layers...
متن کاملCurrent therapy for retinal vein occlusion.
Retinal vein occlusion is a common retinal vascular disorder causing visual deterioration in the elderly. Vision-threatening complications include macular ischemia, neovascularisations, and vitreous hemorrhages. There are central and branch retinal vein occlusions as well as their ischemic and nonischemic subtypes. Branch occlusion and nonischemic cases are associated with better prognosis, oft...

The main objective of the study was to quantify serum levels of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt/pre-B-Cell colony-enhancing factor 1/visfatin) in subjects with a history of retinal vascular occlusions (RVOs), disease conditions characterized by pronounced ischemia, and metabolic energy deficits. A case-control study of 18 subjects with a history of RVO as well as six healthy volun...
