Ocular manifestations and treatment progress of Parry-Romberg syndrome
摘要
Parry-Romberg syndrome is a rare degenerative disease. This article focuses on the ocular aspects of Parry-Romberg syndrome to help diagnose and further explore more effective treatments.
MethodsA combined systematic search of PubMed electronic database by using Boolean operators AND and OR was conducted, choosing the following keywords: "Parry-Romberg syndrome", "Progressive hemifacial atrophy", "eye", "oculus", "ophthalmic", "ophthalmologic", "ophthalmology" and "global", etc. After the initial screening of these articles, repetitive literatures were excluded.
Results69 articles were selected. This study introduces the ocular manifestations, possible pathogenesis, and treatment progress of Parry-Romberg syndrome.
ConclusionThere is currently no clear pathogenesis and effective treatment for Parry-Romberg syndrome. Understanding its pathological mechanism in the context of autoimmune etiology and exploring its phenotype-genotype correlation may help find more valuable treatments.
