Resumen

QUISPE HUACHACA, Jhonathan Percy; VICTORIO AVILA, Cesar Antonio  y  PADILLA FLORES, Juan Roberto. Intracranial migration of silicone oil through the optic nerve post-vitrectomy. An. Fac. med. [online]. 2019, vol.80, n.2, pp.200-203. ISSN 1025-5583.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15381/anales.802.16416.

The intracranial migration of intraocular silicone oil is a rare complication in the treatment of complications of diabetic retinopathy. Several possible etiopathogenic mechanisms have been published to explain this phenomenon of migration. Silicone oil appears hyperdense on tomography, being a challenge to distinguish it from subarachnoid hemorrhage, highlighting the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging. In patients with evidence of previous silicone retinopexy, the visualization of an intraventricular lesion with a chemical displacement device presents the possibility that it is a migration of the silicone oil. To present the case of a patient with a history of retinopexy with silicone oil and intense headache, identifying the migration of silicone oil in the ventricular system with tomography and resonance studies.

Palabras clave : Silicone Oils; Foreign-Body Migration; Cerebral Ventricles.
