| الوصف: | BACKGROUND: Many ophthalmological complications have been associated with hydrocephalus (HC), including ocular motility disorders, visual field defects, optic atrophy, and loss of visual acuity. No studies have investigated the prevalence of strabismus and visual outcomes of children with congenital HC after ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt in Saudi Arabia. OBJECTIVES: Estimate the frequency of strabismic children diagnosed with HC who underwent a VP shunt procedure. DESIGN: Medical record review SETTING: Tertiary care center PATIENTS AND METHODS: We reviewed the files of all pediatric patients diagnosed with hydrocephalus before the age of 2 years and treated with shunts during the period 2010 to 2020 at our institution. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Strabismus types and ophthalmic assessment (visual state, outcomes, and ocular motility state). SAMPLE SIZE AND CHARACTERISTICS: 190 children; 98 (51.5%) males. RESULTS: Eighty-nine (46.8%) had congenital HC followed by intraventricular hemorrhage 36 (18.9%); 74 (38.9%) patients had regular follow-ups in ophthalmology. Sixty-five (34.2%) patients had no ophthalmic assessment or fundus examination records, while 63 (33.1%) were diagnosed with strabismus. At the initial assessment, 26 (13.6%) patients had exotropia (XT). At the final assessment, 7 (3.6%) patients had XT. The association between VP shunt and strabismus was statistically significant, (χ2=6.534, df=1, P |
