Ubm of blunt trauma in pediatric population
1. UBM of Blunt Trauma
in Pediatric Population
Mohamed ELShafie
Assistant lecturer of ophthalmology
Kafr ELShiekh university
2. We always get trauma in our hospitalsmost of these injuries are 2ry to blunt object
3. Pathophysiology of Blunt Ocular Trauma
If a large object hits the
eye, most of the impact is
usually taken by the orbital
margin.
4. • There are four main mechanisms:
1- Coup (injury at the same point)
2- Contrecoup (injury at the opposite point)
3- Equatorial expansion
4- Global repositioning
Mechanism of Blunt Ocular Trauma
5. Effects on the Cornea
Blood stained cornea
Corneal Abrasion
Corneal Edema
6. Effects on the Iris and Ciliary Body
Hyphema
Angle recession
Iridodialysis
Traumatic mydriasisCyclodialysis Cleft
7. Effects on the Lens and Zonules
• Traumatic cataract
• Lens Subluxation
• Anterior Capsule Rupture
• Posterior Capsule Rupture
8. A meticulous evaluation& appropriate
treatment of the traumatized eye are crucial in
preventing visual impairment.
However, evaluation of anterior segment by
clinical examination alone is limited by trauma
related media opacities.
9. Ultrasound Biomicroscopy
High frequency ultrasound
(50-100MHZ)
Images with high resolution
(50 um)
Depth of penetration
(5mm)
Can image through opaque
cornea
Coupling media: Fluid
Patient position: Supine
Skilled examiner
Time consuming
10. Study included 95 eyes of 95 patients representing with blunt
ocular trauma attending the outpatient clinics of Mansoura
ophthalmic center during the period from October 2013 to
October 2014.
11. Comparison between clinical and
UBM findings:
UBM detect structural changes which may be
missed or can’t be detected by clinical
examination especially with opaque media.

12. 17 years old patient exposed to blunt trauma
. Clinically slit lamp showed corneal
oedema, which mask visaulization of the
anterior segment
UBM examination showed subluxated lens
with vitreous prolapsed in AC.
13. A case with angle recession that couldn't
be detected clinically
Tear in the ciliary body itself, between the circular and the longitudinal fibers
14. A 6-year-old child with traumatic cataract.
UBM evaluation was useful in detecting zonular
dialysis before surgery.
15. Separation of the ciliary body from the scleral spur resulting in cleft
A 14 year-old patient exposed in her right eye to a
rocket firework followed by hypotony.
Cyclodialysis was obvious by UBM
16. • Never take blunt trauma to eye lightly.
• In the setting of ocular trauma, you must first “take a
step back” and examine the eye in detail.
• UBM is a useful tool in detection of ocular pathology
after trauma especially in detection of cyclodialysis
and angle recession.
Editor's Notes
If a small object hits the eye, the eye itself may take most of the impact.
tear is in the ciliary body itself, between the circular and the longitudinal fibers
