Article Synopsis
- Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a noninvasive imaging technique used to assess the retina but its application in carotid cavernous sinus fistula cases was not previously explored.
- A patient with a left indirect carotid cavernous sinus fistula showed increased vessel density in the macular capillary plexuses before percutaneous embolization, which decreased after the treatment, indicating a change in the vascular conditions.
- These results suggest that OCTA could be valuable for evaluating and monitoring patients with carotid cavernous sinus fistula prior to and following embolization.
Purtscher's retinopathy case report: short posterior ciliary arteries contribution to radial peripapillary capillary system observed with optical coherence tomography angiography.
Int Ophthalmol
November 2019
Purpose: The authors report a case of Purtscher's retinopathy whose optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) analysis allows us to better understand the vascular network of the optic disk.
Methods: Case report.
Results: A 75-year-old man presented with vision loss in his left eye (LE) after chest compression.
Correlation Between Ischemic Retinal Accidents and Radial Peripapillary Capillaries in the Optic Nerve Using Optical Coherence Tomographic Angiography: Observations in 6 Patients.
Ophthalmol Eye Dis
April 2017
Background: Perfusion of the optic nerve has been widely studied using fluorescein angiography (FAG), which is currently regarded as the criterion standard. However, FAG has adverse effects associated with intravenous contrast administration and is limited in its capacity to characterize and stratify the different vascular layers of the optic nerve and retina. The use of new imaging techniques, such as optical coherence tomographic angiography (Angio-OCT), is therefore important.
