Diagnóstico de adenocarcinoma pulmonar primario a partir de metástasis coroidea. Reporte de caso

En la actualidad se cuenta con escasos reportes de casos clínicos de pacientes con metástasis coroidea sintomática como la presentación inicial de cáncer de pulmón. En este reporte describimos el caso de una paciente con adenocarcinoma de pulmón, la cual fue diagnosticada por síntomas iniciales o...

Descolamento seroso da retina neurossensorial associado à mácula dome-shaped: relato de dois casos

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 81 (), 2022
RESUMO A mácula dome-shaped consiste na elevação convexa da região macular, encontrada principalmente em pacientes com alta miopia. O significado clínico e a correlação com outras patologias oculares ainda são incertos. Este artigo tem como objetivo descrever dois casos de mácula dome-shaped com...

Evaluation of choroidal thickness and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in patients with unilateral amblyopia: a prospective study

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 80 (2), 2021
ABSTRACT Purpose: to compare the Subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness (RNFL) of amblyopic and normal fellow eyes. Design: Prospective, cross-sectional, observational case series. Methods: Forty patients age 12 to 41 years (mean 23.73 ± 6.42) with unilateral ambl...

The effects of pharmacological accommodation and cycloplegia on axial length and choroidal thickness

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 84 (2), 2021
ABSTRACT Purpose: To investigate the effects of pharmacological accommodation and cycloplegia on ocular measurements. Methods: Thirty-three healthy subjects [mean (±SD) age, 32.97 (±5.21) years] volunteered to participate in the study. Measurement of the axial length, macular and choroidal thickness,...

Evaluation of retinal and choroidal microvascular changes in patients who received hydroxychloroquine by optical coherence tomography angiography

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 84 (1), 2021
ABSTRACT Purpose: The aim of the study is to evaluate the retinal and choroidal microvascular changes via optical coherence tomography angiography in patients who received hydroxy­chloroquine. Methods: In total, 28 eyes of 28 patients (24 females, and 4 males) receiving treatment with hydroxy­chloroq...

Unilateral choroidal tuberculoma as an initial manifestation of presumed ocular tuberculosis: a case report

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 80 (4), 2021
ABSTRACT Choroidal tuberculomas are present in patients with ocular tuberculosis. They usually occur in a patient with previous history of tuberculosis, and are rarely the initial presentation, with no prior systemic manifestations. We present a patient with unilateral choroidal tuberculoma as the initia...

Swept-source optical coherence tomography findings in premature children with a history of retinopathy of prematurity at 5 years of age

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 83 (6), 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose: To compare central foveal thickness, retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, and subfoveal choroidal thickness using swept-source optical coherence tomography in premature children with a history of treated retinopathy of prematurity (either with intravitreal bevacizumab or laser photocoa...

Evaluation of the retinal vasculature of patients with branch retinal vein occlusion using optical coherence tomography angiography

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 83 (6), 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate vascular density in super­ficial and deep capillary plexuses of the retina, measured using optical coherence tomography angiography in patients with branch retinal vein occlusion. Affected eyes were compared with the contralateral eye of the same patient and both were comp...

Ocular blood flow and choroidal thickness changes after carotid artery stenting

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 83 (5), 2020
ABSTRACT Purposes: To evaluate changes in ocular blood flow and subfoveal choroidal thickness in patients with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis after carotid artery stenting. Methods: We included 15 men (mean age, 63.6 ± 9.1 years) with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis and 18 healthy volunteers ...

Optical coherence tomography detection of changes in inner retinal and choroidal thicknesses in patients with early retinitis pigmentosa

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 83 (5), 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate the inner retinal and choroidal thicknesses in patients with early retinitis pigmentosa. Methods: We analyzed spectral-domain optical coherence tomography images of 35 retinitis pigmentosa patients and 40 healthy individuals. We measured macular and ganglion cell complex t...
