58 Spirochetal DiseasesLesser, Robert L"Spirochetes are widely distributed in nature and often are found in aquatic environments, but they colonize humans. All spirochetal infections are characterized by skin or mucous membrane penetration followed by a spirochetemia that produces damage during several clinical stages (2)."
59 Supranuclear and Internuclear Ocular Motility DisordersZee, David S; Newman-Toker David"In this chapter, we survey clinicopathologic correlations for supranuclear ocular motor disorders."
60 Topical Diagnosis of Acquired Optic Nerve DisordersAlfredo A. Sadun, MD, PhD, Flora L. Thornton Chair, Professor of Ophthalmology and Neurological Surgery, Keck School of Medicine at USC; Agarwal, Madhu RDistinguishing an optic neuropathy from retinal disease.
61 Topical Diagnosis of Chiasmal and Retrochiasmal DisordersLeonard A. Levin, MD, PhD. Chair of Ophthalmology, McGill University"The optic chiasm is one of the most important structures in neuro-ophthalmologic diagnosis. The arrangement of visual fibers in the chiasm accounts for the characteristic visual field defects caused by such diverse lesions as tumor, inflammation, demyelination, ischemia, and infiltration."
62 Topical Diagnosis of TumorsNancy J. Newman, MD, Emory Eye Center"In this chapter, we consider the symptoms and signs that may occur in patients with ocular, orbital, intracranial, and spinal cord tumors."
63 Toxic and Deficiency Optic NeuropathiesPaul H. Phillips, M.D., University of Arkansas"Physicians have known for centuries that the anterior visual pathways are vulnerable to damage from nutritional deficiency and chemicals."
64 Traumatic Optic NeuropathiesKenneth D Steinsapir, MD; Robert A. Goldberg, MD, UCLATraumatic optic nerve injuries are calssically divided into direct and indirect injuries.
65 The Trigeminal Nerve and Its Central ConnectionsGrant T. Liu, MD. Professor of Neurology, University of Pennsylvania"Because the three divisions of the trigeminal nerve run in close proximity to cranial nerves II, III, IV, and VI, sensory dysfunction in the face may be a symptom in neuro-ophthalmic patients with vision loss and eye movement disorders."
66 Tumors Derived from Hematopoietic Cells and TissueJohn Kerrison, MD, Retina Consultants of Charleston"Hematopoiesis is the orderly process of blood cell proliferation and maturation."
67 Tumors of Cranial and Peripheral NervesChesnutt, David A"Although there are differences between the behavior of primary tumors of the cranial nerves and primary tumors of the peripheral nerves, their structural similarities permit them to be discussed together."
68 Tumors of Maldevelopmental Origin and Related LesionsKarl C. Golnik, MD, Departments of Ophthalmology, Neurology & Neurosurgery, University of Cincinnati & The Cincinnati Eye Institute"Some intracranial lesions result from abnormal development during embryogenesis."
69 Tumors of Neuroectodermal OriginHedges III, Thomas R"Neuroectodermal tumors arise from cells derived from the primitive neuroectoderm (1) including neuroglial cells, parenchymal cells of the pineal gland, neurons, and primitive embryonal cells of the brain and retina."
70 Tumors of the Meninges and Related Tissues: Meningiomas and SarcomasCockerham, Kimberely P; Kennerdell, John S; Maroon, Joseph C; Bejjani, Ghassan K"The meninges of the brain and spinal cord consist of three different layers: the dura mater, arachnoid (tela arachnoidea), and pia mater."
71 Tumors of the Pituitary GlandGittinger Jr., John W"Tumors of the pituitary gland are so important from a neuro-ophthalmologic standpoint that they are considered in a separate chapter."
72 Vascular Malformations and Tumors of Blood VesselsLee, AndrewThis chapter describes vascular formations and blood vessel tumors.
73 VasculitisSteven L. Galetta, MD, NYU Langone"In this chapter, we consider disorders that produce neuroophthalmologic symptoms and signs from inflammation of blood vessels."
74 Venous Occlusive DiseaseValerie A. Purvin, MD, Indiana University"Occlusion or insufficiency of the venous drainage in the head and neck can cause a range of neurologic and ophthal-mologic manifestations. Clinical features vary depending on the location and mechanism of occlusion."
75 Viruses (Except Retroviruses) and Viral Diseases - Part 1Paul W. Brazis, MD, Mayo Clinic; Neil R Miller, M.D., Professor of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University"Viruses are important causes not only of human systemic disease but also of neurologic and visual disease. It is not the purpose of this chapter to consider all known viruses that produce human disease or to consider all diseases produced by those viruses. Instead, we will restrict this chapter to ...
