Routine eye examinations ensure that possible eye problems are not overlooked while all attention following successful EA surgery is focused on the continuity of the esophagus.

Abstract

Aim: Except for coloboma (incorporated with CHARGE syndrome), there is insufficient data about ophthalmologic anomalies associated with esophageal atresia (EA) (error of refraction, strabismus, retinal pathology, etc). In this study, we present the results of ophthalmologic evaluations of patients who underwent surgery with the indication of EA. Material and Methods: The results of ophthalmologic examinations of the patients aged between 1 and 5 years who underwent surgery due to EA and examined at eye clinics were evaluated, together with the number of days under ventilation support, and other clinical features. Results: A total of 16 patients with EA (six girls and ten boys, aged between 1 and 5 years), who were examined at the ophthalmology polyclinics with accessible postoperative medical records were included in the study. Strabismus was detected in 2 children, and Duane type retraction syndrome in one of them. One of the patients with eye problem had undergone intraocular injection for retinopathy due to prematurity (ROP), and improved. Thirteen cases had one or more eye problems, the most frequent defect being hypermetropia and astigmatic refraction. Myopic astigmatism was present in 6 cases. Conclusion: Eye problems can be seen in patients with EA, related to preterm birth, risk of perinatal asphyxia , previous surgeries and postoperative intensive care conditions. Routine eye examinations ensure that possible eye problems are not overlooked while all attention following successful EA surgery is focused on the continuity of the esophagus.

Özet

Amaç: Kolobom (CHARGE birlikteliği içinde) hariç, özofagus atrezili (ÖA) olgularda diğer göz anomalileri (refraksiyon kusuru, şaşılık, retinal patoloji vb.) birlikteliği hakkında yeterli veri yoktur. Bu çalışmada, ÖA nedeni ile ameliyat olmuş ve oftalmolojik yönden değerlendirilmiş olguların sonuçları sunulmaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntem: ÖA nedeni ile ameliyat olmuş hastalardan göz polikliniklerinde muayene edilmiş, yaşları 1-5 arasında değişen olguların oftalmolojik muayene sonuçları ile doğum haftası, ventilatöre bağlı geçirilen gün sayısı ve diğer klinik özellikleri birlikte değerlendirildi. Bulgular: ÖA nedeniyle ameliyat sonrası Göz Hastalıkları polikliniklerinde muayene olmuş ve kayıtlarına ulaşılan, yaşları 1-5 arasında değişen, 6’sı kız toplam 16 hasta değerlendirmeye alındı. Çocukların 2’sinde şaşılık ve bunlardan 1’inde Duane tip 1 retraksiyon sendromu saptandı. Göz kusuru olan hastaların birine ise prematüriteye bağlı retinopati (ROP-Retinopathy of Prematurity) nedeniyle göz içi enjeksiyon yapılmış ve düzelmişti. On üç olguda bir veya birden fazla göz kusuru vardı, en sık kusur hipermetropi ve astigmatik refraksiyondu. Altı olguda miyopik astigmatizma saptandı. Sonuç: ÖA’li olgularda preterm doğum, perinatal asfiksi riski, geçirilen cerrahiler ve ameliyat sonrası yoğun bakım şartlarına bağlı olarak göz sorunları görülebilir. Başarılı ÖA ameliyatları sonrası tüm dikkatler yapılan cerrahi nedeni ile özofagusun sağlıklı devamlılığına odaklanmış iken, hastaların rutin göz muayenesi olası göz sorunlarının gözden kaçırılmamasını sağlayabilir.
