توجه داشته باشید کتاب مشکلات رایج عصبی-چشمی: آموزش مبتنی بر مورد نسخه زبان اصلی می باشد و کتاب ترجمه شده به فارسی نمی باشد. وبسایت اینترنشنال لایبرری ارائه دهنده کتاب های زبان اصلی می باشد و هیچ گونه کتاب ترجمه شده یا نوشته شده به فارسی را ارائه نمی دهد.
این کتاب با استفاده از موارد واقعی در توصیف بیماران مبتلا به اختلالات عصبی-چشمی، یک ابزار آموزشی مبتنی بر مورد است که شکاف بین اطلاعات کتاب درسی و عملکرد بالینی روزمره را پر میکند. هر مورد ناحیه خاصی از سردرگمی تشخیصی مکرر را نشان می دهد و ویژگی های بالینی خاصی را که باید به تشخیص صحیح اشاره کند برجسته می کند. تمرکز بر خطاها از این طریق به عنوان انگیزه ای برای پزشک برای تسلط بر مطالب عمل می کند تا بتوان از "تله ها" اجتناب کرد. سطح بحثهای موردی فرض میکند که خواننده تا حدودی با نوروآناتومی، فیزیولوژی و فرآیند بیماری اولیه آشنایی دارد، اما هر بحث موردی مروری کوتاه از چنین اطلاعاتی را ارائه میکند، همیشه با تأکید بر ویژگیهایی که از نظر بالینی مرتبط هستند. تاریخچه های موردی مختصر و کاملاً نشان داده شده است، از جمله عکس های حرکتی و فوندوس، میدان های بینایی و مطالعات رادیوگرافی. روایت همراه با سؤالات به خواننده منتقل می شود و پیروی از منطق موارد را آسان می کند.
Using real-life cases describing patients with neuro-ophthalmic disorders, this book is a case-based teaching tool that bridges the gap between textbook information and everyday clinical practice. Each case illustrates a particular area of frequent diagnostic confusion, and highlights the specific clinical features that should point to the correct diagnosis. Focusing on errors in this way serves as motivation to the clinician to master the material so that 'pitfalls' can be avoided. The level of the case discussions assumes that the reader has some familiarity with basic neuroanatomy, physiology and disease process but each case discussion furnishes a brief review of such information, always with an emphasis on those features that are clinically relevant. The case-histories are succinct and amply illustrated, including motility and fundus photographs, visual fields and radiographic studies. The narrative is moved along with questions to the reader, making it easy to follow the logic of the cases.

Diagnosis: Tolosa Hunt syndrome Painful ophthalmoplegia and visual loss Based on the clinical findings, where is the lesion? Diagnosis: Orbital apex syndrome Painless diplopia What is thismotility pattern, and what does it tell you about the mechanism of the patient’s diplopia? Diagnosis: Oculomotor nerve palsy with aberrant regeneration Right-sided visual field loss What is the significance of this visual field pattern? Does it help to illuminate the findings on her MRI? Diagnosis: Lateral geniculate body stroke FURTHER READING Painful ophthalmoplegia Orbital apex syndrome Third nerve misdirection Lateral geniculate body 7 Clinical findings that are subtle Painless central gray spot in a teenager What is the most likely cause of this patient’s neuroretinitis, and how would you test for it? Diagnosis: Neuroretinitis due to cat scratch disease Chronic \"pink eye\" This patient had an additional non-ocular symptom which she did not volunteer because she didn’t think it was relevant to her eye problem, yet this symptom was an important clue to the correct diagnosis. What question should be asked? Diagnosis: Dural-cavernous fistula Bouncing vision What is her symptom of “bouncing vision” called and what physical finding would you look for on examination? This patient’s eye examination, however, was normal, specifically nystagmus was not observed. Why not? What examination techniques can help in the detection of nystagmus when the oscillatory amplitude is particularly small? Diagnosis: Downbeat nystagmus due to Chiari I malformation Farmer with an adduction deficit Diagnosis: Myasthenic pseudo-INO FURTHER READING Neuroretinitis Dural-cavernous fistula Downbeat nystagmus 8 Misinterpretation of visual fields Abnormal field and night blindness How would you describe this patient’s visual field defect?

Diagnosis: Rod-cone dystrophy FURTHER READING Visual field testing Tilted disc syndrome Dominant optic atrophy 9 Neuro-ophthalmic look-alikes Idiopathic optic neuritis vs. Leber\'s hereditary optic neuropathy Based on this patient’s clinical presentation, what is your first diagnostic consideration? Does his clinical course change your mind about the diagnosis? Was there a “red flag” at the time of his initial presentation? Acute tonic pupil vs. pharmacologic mydriasis What commonmechanisms of injury could explain this patient’s pupillary dysfunction? What examination finding can distinguish pharmacologic blockade from postganglionic denervation of the iris sphincter?

Convergence spasm vs. bilateral sixth nerve palsies What clinical findings would support a diagnosis of convergence spasm? Wernicke\'s encephalopathy vs. brainstem stroke What aspect of this casemakes an acute brainstem stroke unlikely? What metabolic abnormality can produce this clinical picture? Chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia vs. progressive supranuclear palsy This combination of horizontal and vertical gaze limitation with slowed saccades could be due to either supranuclear gaze palsy or ocular myopathy. How can we distinguish these two mechanisms? Orbital myositis vs. sixth nerve palsy This patient’s right abduction deficit suggested a sixth nerve palsy. What othermechanism might be responsible and what clinical features suggest this alternative cause? FURTHER READING Optic neuritis vs. Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy Acute unilateral mydriasis Light near dissociation Convergence spasm Wernicke’s encephalopathy Progressive supranuclear palsy Sixth nerve palsy vs. orbital myositis 10 Over-reliance on negative test results Unexplained visual loss In the absence of any objective abnormalities, would you consider that thismight be non-organic visual loss, perhaps due to job-related stress? Visual loss due to nutritional deficiency was suspected based on hermacrocytosis, however her serum B12 level was within the normal range. What would you like to do next? Diagnosis: Pernicious anemia with normal serum B12 level Twinkling after embolic stroke Now we understand the basis of this patient’s visual field defect. But what is causing her persistent photopsias? Diagnosis: Digoxin toxicity with therapeutic levels Painless ptosis and diplopia Diagnosis: Ocularmyasthenia Headache and third nerve palsy Which diagnostic possibilities should be addressed first? What additional test should be obtained? Diagnosis: Aneurysmal third nerve palsy Truly negative neuro-imaging Brainstem syndrome with negative scan Can you localize this patient’s lesion?

Can isolated mydriasis, in fact, be a sign of a posterior… If an isolated, enlarged and poorly reactive pupil is not a sign of a pCOM aneurysm, what other causes should be considered? Diagnosis: Adie’s tonic pupil Acute unilateral visual loss with disc edema Can you diagnose the cause of this patient’s acute monocular visual loss based on the clinical findings? Are ancillary tests needed? Diagnosis: Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) Acute isolated sixth nerve palsy What is the most likely diagnosis and what evaluation would be appropriate?
