Neovascular Glaucoma

CASE PRESENTATION: A 34-year-old white man with type 1 diabetes mellitus presented to our hospital with severe, rapidly progressive bilateral neovascular glaucoma following coronary artery bypass graft surgery. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Weight Loss

    Weight loss was 5.7 kg. Intraocular pressure decreased markedly during hemodialysis (beginning: 53 mm Hg; ending: 14 mm Hg). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    He denied weight loss, fatigue, anorexia, chest pain, shortness of breath, mouth ulcers, fevers, nausea, or vomiting. [webeye.ophth.uiowa.edu]

    Common acute symptoms include: abdominal pain or cramps, diarrhea, fever, jaundice, skin rash, vomiting, weight loss. [zdoc.site]

  • Cat Scratch

  • Pseudotumor

    Unilateral exophthalmos associated with an inflammatory pseudotumoral process in a woman with insulin-dependent diabetes diagnosed 30 years earlier is reported. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Aspiration

    Fine-needle aspiration biopsy revealed mononucleated and multinucleate histiocytes that demonstrated positive immunostaining for CD68 and S100 consistent with Langerhans cell histiocytosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Aqueous humor was collected by means of anterior chamber paracentesis performed with a 30-gauge needle and the volume of the aspirated aqueous humor samples was about 100μL. [journals.plos.org]

  • Xanthoma

    Generalized eruptive xanthomas were found on the back and extremities. Extreme dyslipidemia (serum cholesterol 1311 mg/dl and triglycerides 6356 mg/dl) and diabetes mellitus (fasting plasma glucose 325 mg/dl and HbA1 c 12.1%) were first diagnosed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Eruptions

    Generalized eruptive xanthomas were found on the back and extremities. Extreme dyslipidemia (serum cholesterol 1311 mg/dl and triglycerides 6356 mg/dl) and diabetes mellitus (fasting plasma glucose 325 mg/dl and HbA1 c 12.1%) were first diagnosed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Retinal Pigmentation

    The principle causes of advanced exudative retinopathy are severe breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier due to diabetes mellitus and altered retinal pigment epithelium lipid metabolism. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Since the outer photoreceptor–retinal pigment epithelium complex accounts for the majority of total retinal oxygen consumption, PRP may decrease retinal oxygen demand by destroying this outer layer. [aao.org]

  • Chemosis

    Early posttreatment complications included hyphema, fibrin's exudation, chemosis. Cyclocryotherapy is usefull and accessible method for control of intensive pain in neovascular glaucoma. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Clinical presentation include: conjunctival hyperemia, chemosis and/or serosanguineous exudates, pseudomembranous conjunctivitis, bilateral episcleritis, superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis or cicatricial conjunctivitis. [zdoc.site]

  • Suggestibility

    Although no large, prospective, randomized trials have been performed to date, the growing body of knowledge suggests that anti-VEGF agents are effective at reversing iris and angle neovascularization and lowering intraocular pressure in patients with [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Headache

    Neovascular glaucoma symptoms range from minor vision disturbances to debilitating headaches and total vision loss. A visual field test can detect central and peripheral vision problems caused by glaucoma. [visual-field-software.com]

CRVO, diabetic retinopathy, CAOD, and CRAO require systemic workup and appropriate intervention to prevent further complications. [emedicine.medscape.com]

General treatment Diabetes patients require a thorough systemic workup and appropriate intervention to prevent further complications. Tight glycemic control is vital as the onset of NVG in diabetics is associated with glucose control. [oatext.com]

  • Dyslipidemia

    Extreme dyslipidemia (serum cholesterol 1311 mg/dl and triglycerides 6356 mg/dl) and diabetes mellitus (fasting plasma glucose 325 mg/dl and HbA1 c 12.1%) were first diagnosed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Past medical history is significant for hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, and polycythemia vera. Past ocular history is significant for age related macular degeneration (AMD), cataract extraction and intraocular lens placement in both eyes. [casesjournal.biomedcentral.com]

OBJECTIVE: To review causes, treatment modalities, and success of neovascular glaucoma treatment in the past five years at Songklanagarind Hospital. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

At the final follow-up, the mean logMAR visual acuity was 3.13 1.24, showing a poor prognosis regardless of whether NVG occurred. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, the prognosis for ocular ischemic syndrome is very poor. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Generally, NVG carries a very guarded prognosis. Prognosis is highly dependent on diagnosis and treatment of NVG early in its course. The later it is diagnosed the worse the visual prognosis. [theeyeclinicsurgicenter.com]

Mediators that induce new vessel formation such as the vascular endothelial growth factor-A seem to play a key role in the pathophysiology of this condition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY The underlying pathophysiology of NVG begins with oxygen deprivation, which leads to angiogenesis and neovascularization (NV). [glaucomatoday.com]

The objective of this review is to discuss its etiology, pathophysiology, clinical features and management. [djo.org.in]

We report 4 cases using intracameral air injection for the prevention of the tube obstruction of AGV by blood clot. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention Prevention should be focused on preventing the most common underlying causes of neovascular glaucoma, including retinal vein blockage and diabetic retinopathy. [brightfocus.org]

Antiangiogenic drugs may be used to promote the regression of neovascularization, but generally do not prevent laser photocoagulation and surgical intervention. [fernandez-vega.com]
