Visual impairment in children with brain tumors has received limited attention, as most pediatric neuro-oncology clinical trials neither require ophthalmologic evaluation on enrollment nor monitor effects of treatment on visual function during and after A 3-month-old baby presented with a whitish lesion over the right cornea since birth. Due to the clinical and ultrasonic characteristics of the lesion, a manual anterior lamellar keratoplasty was performed. Histopathological examination showed it to be a simple grade II epibulbar choristoma.
At the departments of neurosurgery and pediatrics of the University Hospital of Hamburg 21 patients after neurosurgery and radiation of cerebellar tumors have been examined as to neuropsychological, neurological and ophtalmological disabilities. A standardized questionairy for the parents concerning
15 patients with eyelid haemangioma in early childhood had been reevaluated concerning amblyopia and refractive error. There was myopia in 3 of 15 and astigmatism in 9 patients on the tumor side. Amblyopia could be found in all patients with astigmatism higher than 2 diopters, all myopic patients
An 8-year-old boy with congenital ptosis of the right upper eyelid due to plexiform neurofibroma was operated on because of a rapidly worsening of his ptosis. Only partial removal of the tumor was possible. A hypermetropic astigmatism of the right eye was caused by the condition of the upper lid,
The case history is reported of an infant with a capillary haemangioma in the superior temporal quadrant of the anterior right orbit. Radiotherapy was not performed in view of the well-known tendency of these tumours to involute. Constant pressure on the globe led to marked oblique astigmatism of
OBJECTIVE
To describe the visual manifestations of brain neoplasms, and to analyze the effect of tumor control on these.
METHODS
This is a descriptive retrospective study, which includes patients under 14 years of age, suffering from different brain neoplasms in our hospital between 1996 and 2005
BACKGROUND
Amblyopia is due to insufficient development of the visual system in early childhood and is a major source of lifelong impairment of visual acuity. Too little is known about the prevalence of amblyopia in Germany and the frequency of its various causes.
METHODS
The Gutenberg Health Study
To review the recent advances in understanding how primary brain tumors affect vision in children.Children with primary brain tumors may have vision loss due to involvement of their afferent visual pathways or from papilledema. These vision deficits may go BACKGROUND
Capillary hemangiomas are the most common orbital tumors of childhood and can cause amblyopia secondary to occlusion of the pupil, anisometropia, or strabismus. We undertook this study to describe the clinical characteristics of children with capillary hemangiomas and to propose a
To assess the efficacy of tocilizumab (TCZ) for the treatment of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA)-associated uveitis.
We conducted a multicenter study of patients with JIA-associated uveitis that was refractory to conventional immunosuppressive drugs and anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF)
Bilateral centrocaecal scotomata have been recognised as a sign of intrinsic optic nerve disease, usually associated with hereditary optic neuropathy, and nutritional or toxic amblyopias. This report describes four patients with central scotomata due to intracranial masses, three of whom recovered
We report the neurological, intellectual and visual outcome of 77 children with hydrocephalus of non tumoral origin. Neurological deficits and epilepsy were common, particularly in those with severe intellectual deficit and with acquired brain damages. Intellectual level prognosis was usually good,
Infantile hemangiomas (IHs) are the most common pediatric vascular tumors. They require therapy when they cause severe complications such as ulceration, amblyopia, or airway constriction. Propranolol is the only treatment that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved for complicated IHs
