A CASE OF OPHTHALMIC ANENRYSM CAUSED BY GUNSHOT INJURY

Abstract

They usually involve either the peripheral cere- bral arteries or the basal portion of the internal carotid artery. Several theories have been pro- posed to explain the pathogenesis of traumatic aneurysms.(1, 2) Digital subtraction angiography provides the standard for diagnosing traumatic aneurysms, and the primary treatment is surgical. The purpose of this study is to add to the literature a case of traumatic ophthalmic aneurysm and to briefly discuss the pathogenesis, possibiliTE
