Abstract：
:Generally speaking, the term "ophthalmic aneurysms" refers to carotid-ophthalmic aneurysms, which arise from the internal carotid artery (ICA) wall at or around the origin of the ophthalmic artery (OA). In contrast, aneurysms arising from the OA stem or its branches, separate from the ICA are called peripheral OA aneurysms (POAAs). POAAs are a rare entity, which clinical features and natural course are not fully understood. A comprehensive literature review of reported aneurysms involving each segment of the OA was undertaken. The demographics, aetiology, clinical manifestations and treatment of reported POAAs are discussed. Of 35 retrieved cases, ten involved the intracranial segment, two were fusiform aneurysms in the optic canal, 17 arose from the intraorbital segment, and 6 involved either the lacrimal or the anterior ethmoidal branches. In 34 cases, clinical details were available; 18 patients experienced moderate to severe visual impairment including blindness, while seven patients had improvement in visual acuity as a result of surgical treatment. The present clinical review reveals that aneurysms of the OA stem and lacrimal branch are potentially threatening to visual acuity, while intracranial segment and anterior ethmoidal aneurysms can rupture and cause subarachnoid or intraparenchymal haemorrhage. Surgical intervention is mandatory in symptomatic cases to prevent visual deterioration or treat aneurismal rupture; alternatively, for small incidental POAAs "watchful waiting" may be indicated.
