Craniopagus conjoined twins are extraordinarily rare and present unique challenges to the multidisciplinary team. There is a paucity of literature on optimizing neuro-ophthalmologic evaluation in craniopagus twins. Herein, we present our enhanced neuro-ophthalmologic evaluation and management in 17-month-old male craniopagus twins, uniquely using handheld optical coherence tomography (OCT) plus portable slit-lamp biomicroscopy, indirect ophthalmoscopy and modified forced-choice preferential looking assessment. Staged surgical separation was supported by enhanced neuro-ophthalmologic evaluation, detailed radiology, three-dimensional printing and virtual reality simulation. This represents the fourth separation of craniopagus twins by our unit.
颅联体双胞胎极其罕见,给多学科团队带来了独特的挑战。关于优化颅联体双胞胎神经眼科评估的文献很少。在此,我们介绍了对一对17个月大的男性颅联体双胞胎进行的强化神经眼科评估与管理,特别采用了手持光学相干断层扫描(OCT)以及便携式裂隙灯生物显微镜检查、间接检眼镜检查和改良的强迫选择优先注视评估。强化的神经眼科评估、详细的放射学检查、三维打印和虚拟现实模拟为分期手术分离提供了支持。这是我们科室进行的第四例颅联体双胞胎分离手术。
