Expulsive choroidal haemorrhage: an experimental study.

Surgical Management of Glaucoma in Sturge-Weber Syndrome

An increased risk of intra and post-operative complications has been noted with glaucoma filtering procedures in these patients, predominantly due to rupture of the fragile vasculature in the choroidal hemangiomas, leading to expulsive choroidal haemorrhage or exudative choroidal detachment (CD) caused by sudden decompression during or after filtering procedures [9-13]. Prohylactic sclerotomies...

Expulsive Hæmorrhage. After Cataract Extraction

Spontaneous expulsive choroidal hemorrhage: CT findings.

Spontaneous expulsive choroidal hemorrhage is a rare ophthalmologic emergency [1 ). It is important for the clinician to attempt to establish an etiology of the disorder prior to any surgical intervention in order to rule out the possibility of an underlying malignancy [2]. If the hemorrhage is caused by a malignancy, patient management will be different than if no malignancy is present [3, 4) ...

[Management of childhood glaucoma associated with Sturge-Weber syndrome].

PURPOSE Sturge-Weber syndrome is a rare congenital disorder consisting of cutaneous, leptomeningeal and ocular vascular malformations. Glaucoma occurs in 30-70 % of patients. Treatment is challenging due to a high risk of severe complications such as expulsive haemorrhage, massive choroidal effusion and serous retinal detachment. Ocular findings and the occurrence of complications under differe...

Bilateral nodular sarcoid choroiditis with vitreous haemorrhage.

A 21-year-old black man with presumed systemic sarcoidosis had bilateral choroidal nodules, unilateral retinal neovascularisation and vitreous haemorrhage, and non-caseating granulomas on percutaneous liver biopsy. The choroidal nodules were serially documented by fundus photography and fluorescein angiography over a 22-month period. Fluorescein angiography was more accurate than ophthalmoscopy...
