Abstract

Optic neuropathy resulting in permanent visual loss is an infrequent delayed complication of radiation therapy. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) has been used to treat such a complication, but its efficacy is controversial. We report a patient who presented with radiation-induced optic neuropathy 17 months after irradiation for a left maxillary antrum melanoma. HBO fully reversed visual loss in the more recently involved eye, and slightly improved vision in the earlier affected eye.

摘要

导致永久性视力丧失的视神经病变是放射治疗罕见的延迟并发症。高压氧疗法（HBO）已被用于治疗这种并发症，但其疗效存在争议。我们报告一例患者，该患者因左上颌窦黑色素瘤接受放疗17个月后出现放射性视神经病变。高压氧疗法使近期受累眼睛的视力完全恢复，使早期受累眼睛的视力略有改善。
