[Indications for the use of a method of direct electrostimulation of the optic nerves in patients with pathology of the chiasmal-cell region].
The authors generalize the results of the use of the method of direct electrostimulation of optic nerves in 145 patients with pathology of chiasmal-cellar region (tumours, optochiasmal arachnoiditis, severe craniocerebral traumas with injuries of the bony optical canal) after the operations. The efficacy of the method was shown in 2/3 of observations with retention of residual visual functions. Differences in the efficacy of treatment of patients with various nosological forms of the disease have been revealed; indications for the use of the new method have been defined.
