    Summary

    Congenital anophthalmia (CA) is often linked with central nervous system defects and other developmental abnormalities. Histologic analysis reveals distinct CA variants, aiding in understanding teratogenesis mechanisms.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Developmental Biology
    • Teratology

    Context:

    • Congenital anophthalmia (CA) is a severe ocular defect.
    • Understanding CA's spectrum and associated anomalies is crucial for diagnosis and management.
    • This study examines 8 cases to detail CA's presentation and classification.

    Purpose:

    • To classify variants of congenital anophthalmia based on histologic findings.
    • To investigate the association between CA and central nervous system (CNS) developmental defects.
    • To discuss potential teratogenic mechanisms in CA.

    Summary:

    • Analysis of 8 congenital anophthalmia (CA) cases revealed CNS defects in all.
    • CA was part of multiple congenital abnormalities, with 4 cases nosologically diagnosed.
    • Histologic study identified four CA variants: complete, partial (neuroectodermal or mixed), with cysts, and with intracranial synophthalmus.

    Impact:

    • Provides a histologic classification for congenital anophthalmia variants.
    • Highlights the frequent co-occurrence of CA with CNS developmental abnormalities.
    • Contributes to understanding the complex mechanisms of ocular teratogenesis.
