Blindness can result from pressure on the optic nerve in the optic canal, either from trauma or from neoplasm. The usefulness, timing, and technique of surgical decompression of the optic canal remains controversial. The present paper describes eight patients with optic nerve compression, who had the optic nerve decompressed through a transorbital approach. Because this technique is technically simple and is associated with a low morbidity, it offers a treatment alternative to this difficult group of patients.
失明可能是由于视神经管内的视神经受到压力所致,这种压力可能来自外伤或肿瘤。视神经管减压手术的有效性、时机和技术仍存在争议。本文描述了8例视神经受压患者,他们通过经眶入路进行了视神经减压。由于该技术在技术上简单且发病率低,它为这类困难的患者提供了一种治疗选择。
