Two brothers with XLRS were under observation. They underwent complete ophthalmological examinations, including electrophysiological examinations, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and fundus photoregistration. The mother refused genetic testing. \u0000RESULTS: Both siblings had early (up to 1 year) manifestations of central foveolamellar and peripheral bullous retinoschisis. The parents are phenotypically healthy, and the relatives have no hereditary eye diseases. The younger brother had a progressive peripheral retinoschisis and underwent barrier laser retinopexy; as a result, the progression stopped at the last examination. Acetazolamide 125 mg given orally daily for 4 weeks did not have a noticeable effect on the volume of bullous cavities. The older brother had been under observation for 4 years, and spontaneous closure of retinal cavities on the periphery in one eye and retinal detachment in the other after surgical treatment of retinoschisis were observed. \u0000CONCLUSION: Clinical cases of long-term follow-up of two brothers with XLRS are described. OCT is indicated to diagnose, assess the length and the state of the vitreoretinal interface, and monitor XLRS. Electroretignography is a specific and sensitive method for the complex diagnosis of XLRS. Barrier laser retinopexy is indicated for progressive peripheral retinoschisis. The efficacy and safety of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors in patients with XLRS require further study.","PeriodicalId":507062,"journal":{"name":"Russian Pediatric Ophthalmology","volume":"38 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140737675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a benign, slow-growing piloid astrocytoma, accounting for 1–5% of intracranial gliomas in children. The incidence of neurofibromatosis type 1 among patients with chiasm glioma ranges from 7 to 60%. The location of the tumor is determined based on ophthalmological symptoms, neuroimaging data (MRI), and surgical findings. The initial growth of the tumor occurs in the anterior visual pathway structures (optic nerves, chiasm, optic tracts) and leads to ophthalmological symptoms, which are dominant in the clinical manifestations of the disease. Chiasm damage may occur in one or both optic nerves, in one or both optic tracts. Damage to the chiasm manifests as bitemporal heteronymous hemianopsia. Moreover, the spread of the tumor to the optic nerves is accompanied by decreased visual acuity. Damage to the optic tract is manifested by homonymous hemianopia and normal visual acuity. However, isolated damage to the optic tract is uncommon and usually occurs with chiasm and optic nerve lesions; hence, visual disturbances are more complex. Lesions in the optic nerve fibers in the chiasm and optic nerves/tracts lead to primary descending atrophy of the optic nerves. Papilledema with optic nerve atrophy indicates occlusive hydrocephalus. Delayed diagnosis of the disease affects treatment results.","PeriodicalId":507062,"journal":{"name":"Russian Pediatric Ophthalmology","volume":"25 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140739892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

She complained of decreased vision for 4 months. The decrease in vision was a result of infectious mononucleosis and conjunctivitis. During the initial examination, typical signs of hysterical amblyopia were observed: a bilateral decrease in visual acuity, loss of field to tubular, and a corresponding impaired orientation in the surrounding space. Reversible changes in visual evoked potentials (VEP) were noted, indicating functional changes in the visual system, impaired color perception. A complete ophthalmological examination was performed, including standard methods and electrophysiological studies. Upon repeated examination after 1 day, complete relief of signs of hysterical amblyopia was noted, namely, an increase in visual acuity to 1.2, expansion of the boundaries of the visual field to normal values, normal binocular and accommodation functions, and normal trichromasia. This case was unique because of the complete restoration of visual functions that occurred spontaneously within 1 day. For the first time, reversible changes in visual evoked potential that were not previously described in the literature were revealed, and an undifferentiated violation of color perception was described.","PeriodicalId":507062,"journal":{"name":"Russian Pediatric Ophthalmology","volume":"84 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140736241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To connect tissues in plastic ophthalmic surgery, the toxic properties of Sulfacrylate should be studied. \u0000AIM: To evaluate the toxic effect of Sulfacrylate in human cell culture in vitro. \u0000MATERIAL AND METHODS: In vitro studies were conducted on human fibroblast cultures of the M-22 line from the 20th passage. Sulfacrylate was used in the present study (registration certificate for a medical device no. FSR 2010/09805; December 31, 2010). A lyophilized bandage based on human type 1 collagen was used to fix the glue. The total number of cells at the bottom of wells, cell density at the bottom of wells and on collagen dressings (1 thousand cells per cm2), structural integrity of cells and their morphology, integrity of cell membranes were evaluated. \u0000RESULTS: The toxic effect of collagen dressings with Sulfacrylate was limited by the size of the bandage. Collagen dressings with Sulfacrylate did not affect the viability of cells not in direct contact with the dressings and did not cause a pronounced decrease in the proliferative activity of cells. The minimum optimal dosage of adhesive for plastic ophthalmic surgery was 1–3 µkl. \u0000CONCLUSION: The use of Sulfacrylate in plastic ophthalmic surgery is feasible; however, the volume used should be minimized.","PeriodicalId":507062,"journal":{"name":"Russian Pediatric Ophthalmology","volume":"16 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140738052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, given the significant effect on visual acuity and diagnostic difficulties in children, the study of this complication is relevant. \u0000AIM: This study aimed to analyze the etiological structure and clinical features of CNV in children. \u0000MATERIAL AND METHODS: From 2014 to 2022, 61 eyes of 54 children (26 girls and 28 boys) had CNV. The patients underwent standard ophthalmologic examination and optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) of the macular zone and optic disc using the RS-3000 Advance 2 Tomograph (Nidek, Japan). \u0000RESULTS: At the time of CNV diagnosis, the children were 5–17 years old, with a mean of 11±3 years. In 30 children (55.6%), CNV was caused by inflammatory lesions of the retina and choroid. Of these cases, 11 occurred during remission, whereas 21 occurred alongside pathologies of the retina, choroid, and optic nerve of noninflammatory genesis (8 of which were associated with Best’s disease). In three children, CNV was considered idiopathic. The development time of postinflammatory CNV ranged from 1 month to 12 years, with an average of 7.3±5 months from disease onset. Type 2 CNV was found in most cases (48 eyes, 78.7%). \u0000CONCLUSION: CNV is a rare complication of various ocular diseases in children. In our cohort, it was most frequently observed in children with inflammatory lesions of the retina and choroid, even during remission. Patients at risk of CNV must be actively monitored because it occurs in various forms.","PeriodicalId":507062,"journal":{"name":"Russian Pediatric Ophthalmology","volume":"223 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140740286","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ophthalmic medicines registered in Russia from the group of local rehydrants replacing tear fluid and stabilizing tear film were used, and a comparative analysis of their effectiveness was carried out. \u0000RESULTS: An individual approach was implemented, and personalized therapy focused on the individual tolerability and effectiveness of medicines was developed. The principle of DES therapy is to replenish the lacrimal fluid deficiency and stabilize all layers of the tear film, considering the etiopathogenesis and severity of clinical symptoms. At this stage, the lipid layer of the tear film was normalized with the help of hypotonic oil-based preparations that can stabilize the lipid layer. All rehydrants of low, medium, and high viscosities contributed to the restoration of the water layer of the joint venture. The deficiency of the mucin layer of the tear film was compensated by hyaluronic acid and carboxymethylcellulose, which are part of the preparations that replace the tear film. The severity of DES associated with the intensity of the clinical changes in the conjunctiva and cornea was considered when designing the DES treatment regimen in children. In cases of mild and extremely severe severity, tear-replacement medicines of low viscosity showed the greatest therapeutic effectiveness. High-viscosity preparations and gels have been proven to be effective in moderate to severe DES. During the desquamation of the conjunctival and corneal epithelium, medicines with regenerating pharmacological action related to tissue repair simulators were included in the treatment regimen. Reparants included in the combined composition of tear-replacement medicines or monopreparations were used. \u0000CONCLUSION: The effectiveness of the DES treatment algorithm in children with various nosologies and features of etiopathogenesis was analyzed considering disease severity. The proposed schemes of personalized tear-replacement and reparative therapy make it possible to prevent a chronic disease course and occurrence of complications and preserve or restore visual acuity.","PeriodicalId":507062,"journal":{"name":"Russian Pediatric Ophthalmology","volume":"26 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140738117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
