Orbitales Emphysem mit Exophthalmus nach transkonjunktivaler Pars-plana-Vitrektomie

Abstract

The case example presented shows that an orbital emphysema with exophthalmos can occur as a rare complication of a transconjunctival pars plana vitrectomy. Close monitoring of the patient symptoms, ocular motility, intraocular pressure and the fundus showed no evidence of compressive optic neuropathy or perfusion abnormalities through orbital vessels. The exophthalmos resolved spontaneously within a few days without any consequences.

“…Underlying causes are usually inflammations (Bowers et al, 2009;Morax and Badelon, 2009;Hafidi and Daoudi, 2013), endocrinopathies (Werner, 1969;Morax and Badelon, 2009;Giugni et al, 2013) or neoplastic processes (Chi et al, 2009;Hafidi and Daoudi, 2013;Bouzidi et al, 2015;Vardarli et al, 2016) as well as heredity causes (e.g. brachiocephalic dog breeds) and trauma (Chousterman et al, 2014;Manousaridis et al, 2016).…”
