The optic nerve hypoplasia is a very rare congenital disease with hypoplasia of the optic nerve on both sides, more rarely on one side.

Synonyms are: English Optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH)

The first description of aplasia of the papilla comes from the French doctor W. Briere in 1877 , and an optic nerve hypoplasia was described in 1884 by H. Magnus.

distribution

The condition is the third most common cause of visual impairment in young children. The frequency is given as 1–2 in 10,000 children.

In the context of syndromes

Optic nerve hypoplasia is an essential component of the following syndromes :

it also occurs in Walker-Dyson syndrome .

root cause

The isolated optic nerve hypoplasia are mutations in PAX6 - gene on chromosome 11 locus p13 based on which a Pax gene encodes see. The role of the Pax6 gene .

Clinical manifestations

Clinical criteria are:

  • usually bilateral, less often unilateral hypoplasia of the optic nerve

In addition to endocrine disorders , mental retardation and malformations of the brain come.

diagnosis

The diagnosis results from clinical and imaging examinations using magnetic resonance tomography and optical coherence tomography .

Differential diagnosis

The following are to be distinguished:
