[The results of direct electrostimulation of the involved optic nerves in neurosurgical patients].
The article generalizes experience in the restoration of vision by direct stimulation of damaged optic nerves after operations for pathological conditions of the chiasmal-sellar region (tumors of the chiasmal-sellar region, optochiasmic arachnoiditis, damage of the optic nerve in the bone canal) in 111 patients. The therapeutic effect was favourable in two thirds of the patients. Indications are determined for the use of the method in various types, duration, and severity of the disease. The use of the method with due regard for the determined indications increases the reliability, degree, and rate of restoration of vision in patients who underwent operation.
