Abstract

A nine year old boy was admitted to our clinic with ocular trauma by wood. At the examination there was an arc shaped corneal penetra- tion area extending from 9 o’clock to 4 o’clock through cornea center. Visual acuity was light perception. Penetretion area was primarily su- tured. Traumatic cataract was diagnosed in the first month. Phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation was performed for trau- matic cataract and visual acuity was finger counting. The corneal scar at the visual axis and intraocular lens implantation capture decreased the visual acuity. Ipsilateral rotational otokeratoplasty, anterior vitrectomy and intraocular lens implantation reposition was performed after two months of the trauma. During the follow up for 18 months, visual acuity was 0,2 decimals with spectacles and cornea at the visual axis was clear. In this case report we aimed to emphasize that corneal scars can be transported to the periphery with rotational autokeratoplasty in order to increase visual acuity and prevent ambliopia during chilhood period.

Özet

Sağ gözüne tahta çarpması nedeniyle kliniğimize başvuran dokuz yaşında erkek hastada sağ gözde kornea saat 4’ten saat 9 yönündeki lim- busa uzanan yay şeklinde kornea merkezinden geçen delinme alanı izlendi. Görme keskinliği ışık hissi düzeyinde idi. Primer dikişle kornea ke- si alanı kapatıldı. Daha sonra travmatik katarakt gelişmesi üzerine fakoemülsifikasyon ve göz içi lensi yerleştirimi yapıldı. Kontrol muayene- lerinde kornea merkezini kapatan lökom alanı ve göz içi lensi yakalanması gelişmesi üzerine rotasyonel otokeratoplasti ameliyatı, ön vitrekto- mi ve göz içi lensi yerleştirimi ameliyatı yapıldı. Ameliyattan sonraki kontrollerinde görme ekseninin açık olduğu ve düzeltmeli görme keskin- liğinin Snellen eşeline göre 0.2 olduğu saptandı. Bu olgu sunumunda, çocuklar ambliyopi çağında olduğu için, merkez görmeyi bozarak kalıcı görme azlığına neden olabilecek kornea le- kelerinin rotasyonel otokeratoplasti ile çevreye taşınabileceği, bu sayede optik eksenin açılabileceği, aynı zamanda cerrahi sırasında otogreft kullanılmadığı için red ihtimalinin dışlanacağının belirtilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
