Idiopathic intracranial hypertension with optic nerve edema - treatment options, case report.

Pseudotumor cerebri, benign intracranial hypertension or idiopathic intracranial hypertension are all terms used for a neurological syndrome consisting of increased intracranial pressure, headache and possible edema of the optic nerve head and decreased visual function. Normal findings in contrast agent computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging of the head in physiological neurological findings, with the exception of paresis VI, indicate an increase in pressure of laboratory normal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of unknown cause. In this article we describe what idiopathic intracranial hypertension is, what manifestations can occur from an ophthalmological point of view and how to treat them.

Carotid-cavernous fistula from the perspective of an ophthalmologist A Review.

Carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) is an abnormal communication - vascular connection between arteries and veins in the cavernous sinus. Classification according to etiology is traumatic vs spontaneous. According to blood flow rate per high flow vs low flow fistula.

[3D ultrasonography diagnostics of the eye and orbit].

3D ultrasonography eye and orbit improve local topography of the eye and orbital space. 3D ultrasonography doesn't supply ultrasonography examination A and B mode. 3D ultrasonography is appropriate for diagnostics of vitreoretional proliferations, tumour diagnostics and therapy (surgical, laser, Ruthenium plate implantation), druses of the optic nerve and for education of young physicians in sonography too.
