Objective To explore the surgical techniques, efficacy and the management of complicated ocular trauma with anteriorposterior segment complications such as cyclodialysis.Methods Fifty-five patients (55 eyes) with complicated ocular trauma were enrolled in this study. Among them, there were 35 cases with eyeball contusion and 20 cases of eyeball rupture. Preoperative visual acuity was from no light perception to 0.15, intraocular pressure (IOP) ranged from one to 10 mm Hg(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa）.Cyclodialysis, vitreous hemorrhage or retinal detachment were revealed by B-ultrasound and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM). Cyclodialysis clefts ranged from one to 12 clockhours. All patients underwent 3-port pars plana vitrectomy with gas/silicone oil tamponade and ciliary body reattachment by cryotherapy (cyclodialysis cleftsle;three clock-hours) or suture fixation (cyclodialysis clefts＞three clockhours). Healing after surgical trauma, visual acuity, intraocular pressure, intraocular hemorrhage, ciliary body and retinal reattachment were followed up.Results In one month after surgery, UBM showed 54 patients out of 55 patients had good ciliary body reattachment. Gonioscopy revealed cyclodialysis still existed in one patient, and this was cured by a second surgical suture fixation. In three months after surgery, ocular trauma healed in all 55 patients, the visual acuity ranged from no light perception to 0.15, with a best corrected visual acuity of 0.8. The ciliary body and retina had good reattachment. IOP of 52 patients was normal; IOP of three patients was still lower than 10 mm Hg. Three patients had secondary glaucoma which was treated by glaucoma surgery. Conclusions Complicated ocular trauma with cyclodialysis can be treated with vitrectomy and cryotherapy or transscleral sutures. The procedure is safe and effective.
Objective To probe the significance of application of ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) in the diagnosis and management of the iris and ciliary tumors. Methods UBM (Mode 840, Humphrey, 50 MHz 5 mm×5 mm) was done in 34 cases (35 eyes) of iris and ciliary body tumors, and some of the affected eyes underwent B-scan or Doppler ultrasound and CT scan. Histopathological examination of the resected tumor tissues was performed in 21 eyes of the operation. Results Among this series of 35 eyes with iris and ciliary body tumors detected by UBM, the characteristics of locality and solidity of the tumors, i,e., anterior chamber in plantation cyst, cyst behind the iris, and solid tumors of iris and ciliary body, of 21 eyes undergone surgical treatment revealed the same results both in UBM and histopathological examinations. Conclusion UBM can supply precise informations in diagnosis and treatment of tumors of iris and ciliary body. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2002, 18: 128-130)
Objective To observe the classification,clinical and pathological features of ciliary body tumors. Methods The clinical and pathological data of 11 cases of primary ciliary body tumors were analysed retrospectively. Results By pathological examination,the tumors of these cases were devided into malignant melanoma (2 cases), benign melanocytoma (3 cases),leiomyoma (2 cases), and angio-leiomyoma, neurilemoma, non-special granuloma and medulloepithelioma (1 case respectively). Both of the benign and malignant tumors of ciliary body tended to grow and enlarge progressively. The cardinal clinical manifestations of this series of 11 cases were as follows: elevation of intraocular pressure in 7, local scleral vascular dilatation in 5, secondary exudative retinal detachment in 5,and the signs of anterior uveitis in the early stage of tumor growth in 4. Conclusion The histopathological types of cilliary tumors are manifold,and the tumors are prone to enlarge progressively in developement either in benign or malignant ones, so that the rates of clinical misdiagnosis are relatively high.
