Spontaneous expulsive choroidal hemorrhage: CT findings.

Expulsive Hæmorrhage. After Cataract Extraction

Expulsive choroidal haemorrhage: an experimental study.

The closure of 2 or more vortex veins in rabbits' eyes results in a persistent rise in intraocular pressure. In these circumstances a small opening into the anterior chamber at the corneoscleral limbus resulted in an iris prolapse, while a larger limbal wound was immediately followed by a massive choroidal expulsive haemorrhage. It appears from this experimental study that a definite and persis...

Rare case of choroidal hemorrhage complicated with hypertension due to chronic renal failure.

BACKGROUND Choroidal hemorrhage is usually seen as expulsive hemorrhage related to surgical invasion and is rarely observed in the absence of surgery or trauma. In this report, we describe a case of choroidal hemorrhage caused by hypertension related to chronic renal failure. CASE A 32-year-old man presented with sudden visual loss, eye pain and swelling in his left eye. He had a history of r...

Ocular findings in sturge-weber syndrome.

PURPOSE We reviewed the rare ocular findings of Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) and the results of implantation of the Ahmed valve in cases associated with glaucoma. METHODS Seven patients (range 18 to 52 years) diagnosed as SWS were reviewed as clinical findings over two years. An anterior chamber maintainer was placed in patients with glaucoma to maintain stable intraocular pressure and minimiz...

Choroidal osteoma.

Choroidal osteomas are benign, juxtapapillary, choroidal tumors that mandate no treatment. They occur predominantly in young (median age, 20 years) females (90%). While ophthalmoscopy and fluorescein angiography reveal suggestive ophthalmic findings, echography, plain radiography, and especially computed tomography (CT) are important in establishing the correct diagnosis. These lesions may be c...
