Neuroophthalmology
February 2022
Article Synopsis
- A 19-year-old woman with type 1 neurofibromatosis and sphenoid wing dysplasia experienced a fainting episode, leading to a lumbar puncture for investigation.
- The cerebrospinal fluid analysis did not show any significant abnormalities, but she developed noticeable eye retraction (enophthalmos) on the same side as her skull anomaly 30 hours later.
- The enophthalmos gradually improved over 72 hours, and it was suggested that it resulted from a drop in intracranial pressure from the lumbar puncture combined with her existing orbital bone issue.
