Abstract

To report a case of spontaneous corneal hydrops which is a rare complication in pellucid marginal degeneration. A 69-year-old female pa- tient with history of pellucid marginal degeneration admitted to our clinic with sudden onset of pain and loss of vision in her left eye. In eye examination, acute corneal hydrops was detected in the left eye and corneal perforation was not observed. Corneal topography revealed pel- lucid marginal degeneration in the right eye. Topical moxifloxacin, loteprednol etabonate and 5% sodium chlorure drop treatment was initi- ated on the patient's left eye. There was a significant decrease in pain complaints at the 1 st week follow-up. Acute corneal hydrops can rarely be seen in pellucid marginal degeneration patients.

Özet

Pellüsid marjinal dejenerasyon hastalığında nadir bir komplikasyon olan spontan korneal hidrops olgusunu ve tedavisini sunmayı amaç- ladık. Pellüsid marjinal dejenerasyon hikayesi olan 69 yaşındaki kadın hasta kliğinimize sol gözünde ani başlayan ağrı ve görme kaybı ile baş- vurdu. Yapılan muayenesinde sol gözde akut korneal hidrops saptandı, perforasyon mevcut değildi. Korneal topografide sağ gözde pellüsid marjinal dejenerasyon saptandı. Hastanın sol gözüne topikal moksifloksasin, loteprednol etabonat ve %5 sodyum klorür damla tedavisi baş- landı ve törapötik kontakt lens uygulandı. 1. hafta kontrollerinde ağrı şikâyetlerinde belirgin azalma mevcuttu. Akut korneal hidrops nadir de olsa pellüsid marjinal dejenerasyon hastalarında görülebilir.
