Abstract

Purpose: We described a case of bilateral spontaneous subhyaloid haemorrhage resulting from aplastic anemia which is rarely reported in the literature. Case Report: A 17-year-old male patient was referred to our clinic with decreased visual acuity in both eyes and subconjunctival haemorhage in his right eye. He had no history of ocular disease or trauma. Fundus examination revealed the presence of bilateral subhyaloid haemorrhage, Roth's spots and haemorrhages around the optic nerve head. Laboratory investigations showed severe aplastic anemia. After two months, resolution of the subhyaloid haemorrhages occured spontaneously with partial recovery of vision. No specific surgical or medical intervention was required. Conclusion: In cases of aplastic anemia, retinal hemorrhagic complications especially of preretinal and superficial nerve layer localization may show spontaneous resolution with minimal sequalea.

Özet

Amaç: Literatürde ender bildirilen bilateral spontan ağır preretinal hemoraji gelişen bir aplastik anemi olgusunu tanımladık. Olgu Sunumu: On yedi yaşındaki erkek hasta sağ gözde subkonjunktival hemoraji ile birlikte, her iki gözde görme keskinliğinde azalma şikayeti ile kliniğimize konsülte edildi. Hastada, herhangi bir oküler hastalık veya travma öyküsü yoktu. Fundus muayenesinde bilateral subhyaloid hemorajiler, Roth spotları ve optik sinir başı çevresinde hemorajiler saptandı. Laboratuar tetkikleri ile ağır aplastik anemi tanısına varıldı. İki ay sonra, subhyaloid hemorajilerde spontan rezorpsiyon ile birlikte görme keskinliğinde parsiyel düzelme oldu. Spesifik bir medikal veya cerrahi müdahale gerekmedi. Sonuç: Spontan, bilateral ciddi preretinal hemorajiler ani görme kayıplarına neden olmaktadır. Aplastik anemi olgularında retinal hemorajik komplikasyonlar, özellikle yüzeyel retinal katmanlarda ve preretinal lokalizasyonda, özel bir oftalmolojik tedavi yaklaşımına ihtiyaç duymaksızın minimal sekel ile spontan rezolüsyon gösterebilmektedir.
