Objective To summarize the visual outcome of patients with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery. Methods Clinical data of 188(191 eyes) with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery in a period from November 1996 to April 1998 were analysed retrospectively. Results The study included penetrating injury in 56 eyes, foreign bodies in the posterior segment in 70 eyes, blunt injury in 41 eyes , and globe rupture in 24 eyes. Main complications included endophthalmitis in 35 eyes, choroidal bleeding in 20 eyes, retinal detachment in 60 eyes, and vitreous hemorrhage in 97 eyes. Post-opera-tively, out of 188 eyes, except for 3 of patients too young to examine, visual acuity improved in 133(70.7%), including 85(45.2%) with visal acuity 0.02-1.0, 46(24.5%) remained unchanged; and 9(4.8%) had worse vision. Among 34 with no-light-perception, 12 had light-perception or over. Conclusion A majority of severe trauma eyes can be salvaged with considerable visual recovery after adequate and timely vitreous surgery. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1999,15:4-6)
Objective To observe the clinical manifestations and feat ures of fundus fluorescein angiograms(FFA)of patients with multifocal choroiditis (MFC)MethodThe data of 8 patients who had been diagnosed by clinic and FFA as with MFC were collected, and their clinical manifestatio ns and results of FFA were analyzed and valued.ResultsThe age of the 7 female and 1 male patients ranged from 16 to 32, and all of the 8 patients had high myopia (from -6.00 D to -8.00 D) with binocular multiple small yellowish white lesions in posterior pole of the fundus and a few phlogistic ce lls in vitreous body. In addition, macular choroidal neovascularization membrane (CNV) was found in 6 patients, binocular in 2 and monocular in 4. The results of FFA in 7 patients showed hypofluorescence of the yellowish white lesions at t he early phase and pigmentation at the late phase; Corresponding manifestations of FFA could be found in the patients attended by CNV surrounded by leakage.ConclusionMFC are mostly diagnosed in young females with myopia. Most of the patients had binocular affection with multiple small yellowish white lesions at the posterior pole, whose FFA shows hypofluoresence of the active lesions at the early phase and pigmentation at the late phase. CNV may occur in patients with MFC.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2004，20：335－338)
Objective To investigate the clinical features of multifocal choroiditis (MC) and guide the diagnosis and treatment. Methods Retrospective analysis of clinical data of 18 MC cases (28 eyes) who were diagnosed through fluorescein angiography (FFA) or indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and fundus characteristics. Results Multiple round to oval lesions scattered throughout the posterior pole and peripheral areas of ocular fundi of all of the 28 eyes(binocular in 10 and monocular in 8) were found. Active focal lesions of ocular fundi were seen in 8 patients and inactive lesions in 10 patients. active and 10 cases were inactive. Choroidal neovascularization(CNV) in macular area was found in 7 patients. The images of FFA of the legions showed hypofluorescence in the early phase, with late leakage and gradual staining or window is defect in the late phase. Conclusions MC is a rare disease and often misdiagnosed to other disease and FFA helpful in diagnosis. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005, 21: 367-370)
