Abstract

Objective: The survey of the methods of surgical treatment of optic nerve atrophy (ONA) among children and the estimate of the effectiveness of the optic nerve revasculization using allomaterial “Alloplant”.

Methods: They survey of the surgical methods of ONA treatment was conducted. The effectiveness of practiced revasculization of the optic nerve among 30 children aged from 2 to 19 by the Children’s Republican Clinical Hospital of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Tatarstan.

Results: Methods of the surgical treatment of optic nerve atrophy are divided into 5 groups conditionally. Only extrascleral methods can be applied to children. The effectiveness of optic nerve revasculization is statistically proven. It is represented by increased visual acuity and the improvement of subjective feelings of patients after operation using proposed methodology.

Conclusions: ONA treatment among children and adults is a challenge of the modern ophthalmology which is still relevant. The operation on revasculization of the optic nerve using Alloplant has been put into practice in our clinic. It showed high clinical efficiency among patients under 19 years old.
