Case Report of Ultrasonographic and Computed Tomography Findings of Presumed Traumatic Ocular Globe and Lens Rupture...

A 5-year-old female spayed domestic short hair cat was presented 2 weeks after a history of unknown trauma. The examination of the head revealed facial asymmetry. Vision tests, including menace responses, were negative. Pupillary light reflexes and dazzle reflexes were negative in both eyes. The posterior segment of the eye could not be visualised due to miosis, hyphaema and fibrin. Ultrasound and computed tomography were performed to assess the eyes in detail. Based on computed tomography and ultrasound, a right ocular globe rupture, left ocular lens luxation and rupture and bilateral vitreal haemorrhage were diagnosed. This case report demonstrates the important role of ultrasound and computed tomography to assess orbital trauma in patients with limited visibility of the posterior segment of the eye due to hyphaema and describes imaging findings of globe and lens rupture.
