[Ophthalmological manifestations of cavernous sinus thrombosis].

Thrombosis of cavernous sinus is one of the most grave diseases of cerebral venous system; its first signs most often manifest in the organ of vision. Pain in the orbit and the respective half of the head develop in the presence of general fatigue, chill, and fever. In parallel with this, venous dyscirculatory disorders in the eye and its appendages involve all oculomotor nerves in succession. Further progress of the disease leads to development of congestive optic disk. Involvement of the other eye is one of the most severe complications of cavernous sinus thrombosis. Further course and manifestations depend on 3 factors: premorbid status, location of the focus of infection, and routes of its penetration into cavernous sinus.

[Unilateral lesion of the optic nerve in cranio-cerebral injuries].

The authors analyse the clinical picture and the results of nonoperative and surgical treatment of unilateral traumatic compression of the optic nerve in 23 patients with closed craniocerebral trauma. The principle role in the pathogenesis of the damage to the optic nerve is attributed to its functional compression within the optic canal as the result of impaired intratruncal circulation and edema of the nerve. This mechanism of the compression may in some cases serve as the reason for undertaking decompression of the optic nerve by resection of the superior wall of the optic canal. Eight patients were operated on, a positive ophthalmological effect was produced in 5 of them. In 15 patients who did not undergo surgery the process terminated in unilateral amaurosis.

[Neuro-ophthalmological symptoms of involvement of the infra-clinoid part of the internal carotid artery].

Arterial aneurysms of the infraclinoid part of the internal carotid artery manifest by Jefferson's I-II syndrome. Similar symptoms are observed in intracranial processes of other origin developing in the immediate vicinity from this portion of the internal carotid artery. The manifestation and type of these symptoms depend on the extension of the pathological process, its localization, and individual anatomic structure of oculomotor nerves.
