Abstract

This study has been carried to evaluate the visual prognosis and anatomic results of perforating ocular injuries due to explosive materials. The cases with perforating eye injuries due to explosive materials applied to Ophthalmology Department of Yüzüncü Yil University Hospital between September 1997-November 2000 were evaluated retrospectively. The cases followed by our clinic and the subjects having a full medical records and at least 6-month follow-up were included into the study. All patients were evaluated according to demographic characteristics, type of ocular injuries, management, anatomic sequels, and visual prognosis. Fourteen eyes of 12 patients were included in the study. All of the patients were male, ranging between 8 to 25 years of age. The most of the patients had severe ocular injury. The most frequent type of ocular injuries were corneal perforation (11 eyes), traumatic cataract (9 eyes) and intravitreal hemorrhage (8 eyes). Intraocular foreign body in three eyes and retinal detachment in two eyes were detected. Final vision was 1/10 in one eye and finger counting or worse in other 13 eyes. Phthisis bulbi developed in five eyes, three of which were enucleated later. The perforating eye injuries occurred by explosive materials have poor visual prognosis and anatomic integrity of the eye can not be maintained in the significant number of the patients.

Özet

Bu çalışmada patlayıcı madde ile oluşan delici göz yaralanmalarında anatomik sonuçları ve görme prognozunu değerlendirmek amaçlandı. Eylül 1997-Kasım 2000 tarihleri arasında Yüzüncü Yıl Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Göz Hastalıkları Kliniği'ne patlayıcı madde ile delici göz yaralanması sonucu başvuran olgular geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Primer olarak kliniğimizde takip edilmiş, tıbbi kayıtları tam olan ve takip süresi en az altı ay olan olgular çalışmaya dahil edildi. Olgular demografik özellikleri, oküler yaralanma şekilleri, tedavi, anatomik sekeller ve görme prognozu yönünden değerlendirildi. On iki olgunun 14 gözü çalışmaya dahil edildi. Olguların tümü erkekti ve yaşları 8-25 yıl arasında değişiyordu. Olguların büyük çoğunluğunda ağır oküler yaralanma mevcuttu. En sık rastlanan yaralanma şekilleri kornea perforasyonu (11 göz), travmatik katarakt (9 göz) ve vitreus hemorajisi (8 göz) idi. Üç gözde göz içi yabancı cisim, iki gözde retina dekolmanı saptandı. Son görme keskinliği bir gözde 0.1 düzeyinde ve geri kalan 13 gözde parmak sayma ve daha kötü düzeydeydi. Beş gözde fıtizis bulbi gelişti. Bunlardan üçüne enükleasyon yapıldı. Patlayıcı maddelerle oluşan delici göz yaralanmaları oldukça kötü prognoza sahip olup, olguların önemli bir kısmında gözün anatomik bütünlüğü korunamamaktadır.
