TitelA historical analysis of the Neuroophthalmic work of prof. J. van der Hoeve
DoelIn the international clinical world vd Hoeve is well know as founder of the term Phacomatosis. But did he, as general ophthalmologist 100 years ago, also other Neuroophthalmologic research?
MethodesAn analysis was performed from his 78 publications, and from books where his special topics were referred.
ResultatenOther important NO items besides the phacomatosis were published, as well in the Dutch as in international literature. Important examples were the blindspot and hemifield visual defects, related to ethmoiditis posterior and or sphenoiditis. Findings in which the diagnosis was confirmed by Orbital-ENT surgery.
Own case material with this topic(with three cases) will be compared.
Conclusievd Hoeve, already before the WO II, was a precursor of the Neuroophthalmology before this subspecialties was established. Especially he promote the relationship between progressive optic neuropathy and ethmoid sinus inflammation, which in the recent literature is disguised. Still today it should be in the differential diagnoses of imminent optic neuropathies, as is seen in our own cases.
