Abstract

A 72-year-old man has bilateral sudden visual loss (SVL), which occurs after sequentially transient bilateral vision loss (TVL) in one week. He also complained of headache, jaw claudication and weight loss for 4-5 months. His familial history and CT scan were normal but he had high ESR and CRP levels. His vision was no light perception (NLP) in both eyes and fundoscopy and FFA findings suggest right central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) and posterior ciliary artery occlusion on left eye. Bilateral temporal artery biopsy was positive for temporal arteritis (TA). However, intravenous bolus methylprednisolone treatment was given to the patientin 72 h and after intravenous treatment oral prednisone was given to the patient.The vision impairment was not occur in 3 months.In older patient, TVL, headache, jaw claudication may show TA. Early diagnosis of TA may prevent total visual loss.

Özet

Yetmiş iki yaşında erkek hastada, bir hafta boyunca süren aralıklı geçici görme kaybı ataklarını takiben her iki gözde ani görme kaybı gelişmiş. Beraberinde hasta 4-5 aydır başağrısı, çene haraketlerinde ağrı ve kilo kaybından şikayetçiydi. Hastanın aile hikayesinde ve çekilen CT’sinde bir problem yoktu ancak ESR ve CRP’si yüksekti. Her iki gözde ışık persepsiyonu negatifti ve fundoskopi ve fundus florosein anjiografi bulguları; sağ gözde santral retinal arter tıkanıklığı, sol gözde ise arka silier arter tıkanıklığı ile uyumluydu. Bilateral temporal arter biopsisi temporal arterit lehineydi. Hastaya 72 saat boyunca intravenöz bolus tarzında metilprednizolon ve ardından oral prednizolon tadavisi başlanmasına rağmen, 3 ay sonraki kontrolde hastanın görmesinde bir düzelme olmadı. Yaşlı bir kimsede geçici görme kaybı atakları, başağrısı, ağrılı çene hareketleri varlığında temporal arterit akla gelmelidir. Temporal arteritin erken tanısı görme kaybını önleyebilir.
