Abstract

Blunt ocular trauma, eye surgery, pathologies of iris and situations that thrombocytopenia can cause to hyphema. From these causes the most common is blunt ocular trauma and it occurs commonly in children. Hypema may often be treated without any complications in the normal individuals. However vision threatening complications are common in hyphemas seen in patients with hemoglobinopathy. These complication include optic nerve damage due to high intraocular pressure, recurrent hyphema, obstruction in retinal vascularite and infarction of optic nerve. Optic nerve infarction is usually associ- ated with retinal vein occlusion and intraocular pressure elevation. In this report, a case with optic nerve infarct resulted from hyphema which was caused by a minimal blunt trauma in a sickle cell trait child is presented.

Özet

Hifemaya künt göz travmaları, göz cerrahisi, irise ait patolojiler ve trombositopeni yapan durumlar neden olabilir. Bunlar arasında en sık neden künt göz travmalarıdır ve çocuklarda daha sık görülmektedir. Normal bireylerde hifema çoğunlukla herhangi bir komplikasyon olmadan tedavi edilebilir. Hemoglinopatili hastalarda ise görmeyi tehdit eden komplikasyonlar sık görülür. Bu komplikasyonlar yüksek göz içi basıncına bağlı optik sinir hasarı, tekrarlayan hifema, retinal ven tıkanık- lığı ve optik sinir infarktını içerir. Optik sinir infarktı genelde retinal ven tıkanıklığı ve göz içi basınç yüksekliği ile birlikte görülmektedir. Bu yazıda minimal künt travmaya bağlı hifema sonucu optik sinir infarktı gelişen orak hücre taşıyıcısı olan bir çocuk sunulmuştur.
