Evaluation of multifocal visual evoked potentials in patients with Graves’ orbitopathy and subclinical optic nerve involvement

Abstract: Dysthyroid optic neuropathy is the most serious, although infrequent (8-10 %) complication in Graves' orbitopathy (GO). It is known that early stages of compressive optic neuropathy may produce reversible visual field defects, suggesting axoplasmic stasis rather than ganglion cell death. This observational, cross-sectional, case-control study assessed 34 consecutive patients (65 eyes) with Graves' hyperthyroidism and longstanding GO and 31 age-matched control subjects. The patients' multifocal visual evoked po… Show more

“…The degree of proptosis in the studied cases has a mean of 21.25 ± 3.04 mm (range, [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. The mean disease duration was 1.63 ± 0.70 years (range, 1-3 years) and the clinical severity score was 3.50 ± 1.13 (range, 2-5).…”

“…Pois, ao passo que os exames de perimetria subjetiva (CV 24-2 e 10-2) e perimetria objetiva (PEV-mf global e central) demonstram um déficit de CV que possivelmente pode ser revertido com a descompressão da via visual em pacientes com neuropatia óptica compressiva [2,97] , os exames de estrutura, como a TCO-dF, indicam certo grau de disfunção permanente. Portanto, em pacientes com defeito de CV e achados da TCO-dF dentro da normalidade apresentam um prognóstico visual melhor com a descompressão da via óptica [97,98] .…”

“…Portanto, em pacientes com defeito de CV e achados da TCO-dF dentro da normalidade apresentam um prognóstico visual melhor com a descompressão da via óptica [97,98] . Contudo, algumas alterações da TCO-dF podem ser encontradas mesmo em pacientes com bom prognóstico visual, sendo importante quantificar estas alterações e sua correlação com os achados de perimetria subjetiva e objetiva como indicador de recuperação de CV após o tratamento.…”
