چکیده

Various cysts associated with intraorbital and intracranial portions of the optic nerve have been described. Arachnoid cysts of the optic nerve in association with optic nerve glioma were described by Wolter and McKenney (I964); Holt (I966) described two cases of cysts of the intracranial portion of the optic nerve, and Smith, Hoyt, and Newton (I969) also described cysts of the anterior third of the left optic nerve. More recently Miller and Green (1975) described two cases of arachnoid cysts involving a portion of the intraorbital optic nerve, but until now a cyst within the parenchyma of the optic chiasm has not been seen.

Electrophysiological and Histological Study of Lysolecithin-Induced Local Demyelination in Adult Mice Optic Chiasm

Introduction: Demyelination is one of the main causes of neurological disability. It is the end product of numerous pathological processes, multiple sclerosis (MS) being the most common cause. More than 70% of the MS patients suffer from optic disturbances. This disease commonly affects the optic pathway, particularly the optic nerves and chiasm. Several attempts have been made to produce a ...

P72: Hesperetine Nanoparticles Ameliorate Glial Activation and Reduce Demyelination Llevel of Rat Optic Chiasm in Lysolecithin-Iinduced Demyelination Model

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is one of the most autoimmune neurological and inflammatory disease in worldwide. Demyelination and disturbance of action potential conductance are regarded as main signs of MS disease. Hesperetin (Hst) is one of the flavonoid that have neuroprotective properties. The present study attempts to evaluate the effects of hesperetin or its nanoparticle on myelin repair and gl...

Nogo receptor blockade enhances subventricular zone’s stem cells proliferation and differentiation in demyelination context

Introduction: Nogo-A and Nogo receptor (NgR) are expressed in the subventricular zone (SVZ) stem cells. NgR plays critical inhibitory roles in axonal regeneration and remyelination. However, the role of NgR in SVZ niche behaviors in demyelination context is still uncertain. Here we investigated the effects of NgR inhibition on SVZ niche reaction in a local model of demyelination in adult mouse ...

Bilateral optic disc colobomas with orbital cysts and hypoplastic optic nerves and chiasm.

A 3-month-old boy with bilateral optic disc colobomas and orbital cysts is presented. Both eyes appeared relatively normal in size. Ultrasonography on one side demonstrated a communication between the globe and cyst by way of the optic disc coloboma. On computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, the cysts' contents were similar to vitreous. The optic nerves and chiasm appeared markedly...
