Optic Disc Abnormalities and their presentationsBARNABASMUGABI
This document discusses various optic disc abnormalities including optic nerve hypoplasia, optic pits, and morning glory disc anomaly. Optic nerve hypoplasia is characterized by a decreased number of optic nerve fibers and can cause visual impairment. It has known risk factors such as young maternal age. Optic pits appear as depressions of the optic disc and can sometimes cause macular serous detachments. Morning glory disc anomaly is a funnel-shaped excavation of the optic disc that is typically unilateral and sometimes associated with retinal detachments or brain abnormalities.
This document provides an overview of pediatric neuro-ophthalmology and various conditions that can cause visual impairment or loss in children. It discusses cortical visual impairment, congenital optic nerve anomalies, swollen optic discs, brain tumour related visual loss, optic atrophy, pupil abnormalities, and ocular motor nerve palsies. Evaluation and management are outlined for many of the conditions. The seminar aims to review specific topics like optic nerve hypoplasia, morning glory disc anomaly, optic disc coloboma, intracranial hypertension, optic neuritis, and brainstem gliomas among others.
This document discusses Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), a group of inherited retinal disorders characterized by progressive dysfunction of rod photoreceptors and subsequent degeneration of cone photoreceptors. It causes night blindness and visual field loss. RP has several subtypes and can be inherited in autosomal dominant, recessive or X-linked patterns. Diagnosis involves visual field testing, electroretinography and fundus examination. There is no cure but vitamin supplements and low vision aids can help manage symptoms.
This document provides an overview of cerebral palsy (CP), including its definition, causes, classifications, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. CP is a permanent motor disability caused by non-progressive damage to the developing brain. It is classified based on motor type (spastic diplegia, hemiplegia, etc.). Treatment involves a multidisciplinary approach including physiotherapy, orthotics, pharmacotherapy, and surgery to improve mobility and function. Prognosis depends on the type and severity of CP, but a team-based approach aims to maximize development and independence.
The document discusses various aspects of the cerebellum and cerebellar disorders:
1) The cerebellum is located at the back of the brain below the cerebrum and plays an important role in motor coordination and balance. Damage or dysfunction can cause ataxia, instability, slurred speech, and other issues.
2) There are two main types of cerebellar syndromes - midline syndromes affecting balance and trunk control, and hemispheric syndromes affecting limb coordination.
3) Causes of cerebellar injuries include toxins, autoimmune conditions, structural lesions, and inherited degenerations. Diagnosis involves neurological exams and often MRI scanning.

Approach to a patient with bilateral vision lossNeurologyKota
This document discusses various causes of persistent bilateral visual loss in children and adults. In children, common non-progressive causes include congenital optic nerve anomalies such as optic nerve hypoplasia, morning glory disc anomaly, or optic nerve coloboma. In middle-aged or older adults, common causes of non-progressive bilateral visual loss include non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy and glaucoma. Progressive bilateral visual loss can be caused by conditions affecting the optic nerves, chiasm, or retrochiasmal pathways such as pituitary tumors, aneurysms, or toxic/nutritional optic neuropathies. A thorough history, exam, and testing is needed to determine the underlying etiology in each case.

Rods contain the visual pigment rhodopsin, which consists of the protein opsin bound to the chromophore retinal. Rhodopsin absorbs blue light at 500nm and allows rods to function in low light conditions. Rods are more numerous and sensitive to light than cones, allowing vision in dim environments. When shifting from light to dark, the processes of pigment regeneration and phototransduction take place over 30 minutes to restore night vision through the visual pigment rhodopsin in rods. Nyctalopia, or night blindness, can result from vitamin A deficiency or other causes that impair rod function.
This document discusses myopia and hypermetropia. It defines myopia as a refractive error where light focuses in front of the retina. There are different types and grades of myopia. Simple myopia progresses during childhood while pathological myopia is a degenerative condition. Treatment includes optical correction, contact lenses, and surgery. Hypermetropia is a refractive error where light focuses behind the retina. It has different etiologies and types. Simple hypermetropia results from normal eyeball variations while pathological hypermetropia is outside normal variations. Treatment involves prescribing convex lenses.

This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is a summary of Pneumothorax:
Pneumothorax, also known as a collapsed lung, is a condition that occurs when air leaks into the space between the lung and chest wall. This air buildup puts pressure on the lung, preventing it from expanding fully when you breathe. A pneumothorax can cause a complete or partial collapse of the lung.

Definition
● Originally described in 1968 in four siblings with agenesis of the
cerebellar vermis presenting episodic hyperpnoea, abnormal eye
movements, ataxia and intellectual disability.
● A pathognomonic imaging sign termed the “molar tooth signed”
became characteristic.
● The term "Joubert Syndrome and Related Disorders" (JSRD) was
then coined to group all conditions sharing the MTS [4], and this
neuroradiological sign now represents the mandatory criterion to
diagnose JSRD.
4. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
The MTS abnormalities correspond to a picture of severe hypo-dysplasia of the
cerebellar vermis and with midline clefting, along with dysplasia of pontine and
medullary structures such as the basis pontis, reticular formation, inferior olivary,
dorsal column and solitary tract nuclei. Moreover, typical findings are represented by
the lack of decussation both of the superior cerebellar peduncles and of the
corticospinal tracts at the medullary pyramids.
6. SLIDESMANIA.COM
Epidemiology and genetics
Epidemiology
JSRD are clinically heterogeneous and combine neurological signs
with variable multiorgan involvement, mainly of the retina, kidneys,
liver and skeleton. Ten causative genes have been identified to date.
These genes encode for proteins of the primary cilium, including
JSRD in the group of "ciliopathies". Primary cilia are known to play
key roles in the development and functioning of several cell types,
including retinal photoreceptors, neurons, kidney tubules and bile
ducts.
JSRD follow autosomal recessive inheritance and are genetically
heterogeneous.
Genetics
Although the incidence of JSRD has not been precisely determined, it may range
between 1/80,000 and 1/100,000 live births, but may be underestimated
7. SLIDESMANIA.COM
Neurological
Clinical features
● The cardinal neurological features of JSRD are hypotonia evolving into ataxia and developmental delay, often
associated with intellectual disability, altered respiratory pattern in the neonatal period (upto 6 months) and
abnormal ocular movements (ocular apraxia, strabismus, inability to follow objects)
● Higher incidence of epilepsy.
Ocular
• The retina is one of the organs most frequently involved in JSRD, mostly in the form of retinal dystrophy,
due to progressive degeneration of photoreceptor cells. This will cause reduced visual acuity and even
blindness.
8. SLIDESMANIA.COM
Renal
Clinical features
● Renal disease affects approximately 25% of patients with JSRD, presenting in most cases as Nephrophthisis.
This is a structural tubulo-interstitial disorder characterized by irregular, thickened basal membrane of the
tubular epithelium and progressive interstitial fibrosis, associated with small cysts at the cortico-medullary
junction that will eventually cause CKD and progress to ESRD (usually by the end of the second decade)
Skeletal
• Since the description of the first JS family, polydactyly and oral defects have been often
reported in JSRD with a frequency of about 8-16%. Mild to severe scoliosis may represent a
manifestation of JSRD and likely relates to the degree of hypotonia in early infancy

Genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis
Management and follow-up
● JSRD are transmitted in autosomal recessive fashion, and the recurrence risk for a couple with an
affected child is one in four. (Chorionic villus sampling, fetal imaging)
● Managing respiratory and feeding problems related to either breathing abnormalities or hypotonia
● Rehabilitation strategies must be planned for cognitive and behavioral difficulties and specific
manifestations such as the visual impairment
● Diagnostic assessment should be carefully followed up over time, in particular the detection of decreased
urinary concentration ability often represents the first clue to a diagnosis of NPH in otherwise asymptomatic
patients.
Prognosis
• Prognosis is related to the extent and severity of breathing dysregulation. In particular, recurrent
episodes of prolonged apneas can be life-threatening and require assisted ventilation. This is especially
true in the neonatal period
• Afterwards, prognosis depends mostly on renal and hepatic complications that, if not timely diagnosed
and managed, represent the major causes of death in JSRD patients.

There is concurrent superior vermian dysplasia (thin arrows); B) parasagittal T1-weighted image shows thickened and maloriented superior cerebellar peduncle (thick arrowheads); C) axial T1-weighted image confirms the deepened interpeduncular fossa (open arrowhead) and abnormal superior cerebellar peduncles (thick arrowheads), comprising the "molar tooth sign"; D) coronal FLAIR image shows midline cerebellar cleft (black arrows) indicating agenesis of the inferior vermis.
Although hypotonia represents an unspecific finding of many neuropediatric disorders, its association with other peculiar features such as an irregular breathing pattern and altered eye movements should suggest the diagnosis of JSRD and prompt the clinician to request a brain magnetic resonance imaging
