[Endoscopic optic nerve decompression in traumatic visual loss].
OBJECTIVE: To review our experience of treatment of optic nerve decompression in traumatic visual loss by using endoscopic technique. METHOD: Fourteen cases patients with traumatic visual loss were undergone endoscopic optic nerve decompression. All patients were followed up for 3-18 months. RESULT: Eight cases had improved visual acuity, and 6 cases did not. No complication had happened. CONCLUSION: Endoscopic optic nerve decompression is an appropriate technique for patients with traumatic visual loss. Even though high-dose steroid treatment has failed, optic nerve decompression may improve visual acuity.
