Abstract

Optic neuropathy resulting in permanent visual loss is an infrequent delayed complication of radiation therapy. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) has been used to treat such a complication, but its efficacy is controversial. We report a patient who presented with radiation-induced optic neuropathy 17 months after irradiation for a left maxillary antrum melanoma. HBO fully reversed visual loss in the more recently involved eye, and slightly improved vision in the earlier affected eye.

放射性视神经病变的视力恢复。高压氧治疗的作用。
视神经病变导致永久性视力丧失是放射治疗中一种罕见的延迟并发症。高压氧治疗(HBO)已被用于治疗此类并发症,但其疗效仍存在争议。我们报告了一位在放射治疗左上颌窦黑色素瘤17个月后出现放射诱导视神经病变的患者。HBO完全逆转了近期受累眼睛的视力下降,并略微改善了早期受累眼睛的视力。
