Resumo
OBJETIVO: Avaliar o perfil dos portadores de cavidade anoftálmica e a evolução dos pacientes com os tratamentos empregados. MÉTODOS: Estudo retrospectivo, realizado na Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu, avaliando-se o perfil e a evolução dos portadores de cavidade anoftálmica, tratados no serviço. Os dados foram estudados segundo frequência de ocorrência e análise de associação. RESULTADOS: Os portadores de cavidade anoftálmica eram mais frequentemente em homens, trabalhadores em atividades exercidas com as mãos, jovens. O trauma e a phthisis bulbi foram as causas mais encontradas, havendo diferenças de acordo com a faixa etária e sexo. O índice complicações foi alto (57,1% dos casos), a maioria ocorrendo tardiamente. CONCLUSÕES: O trauma continua sendo causa importante de perda do olho. As complicações que ocorrem durante o acompanhamento do portador de cavidade anoftálmica são frequentes e ocorrem, em geral, tardiamente, o que reforça a necessidade de acompanhamento periódico e prolongado destes pacientes.
