Abstract

The ophthalmologic examination of a 45-year-old patient, who was admitted to hospital with the complaint of unilat- eral loss of vision, was consistent with frosted branch an- giitis accompanying central retinal vein occlusion. In addi- tion to creamy white exudation around vessels, widespread intraretinal and subhyaloid hemorrhage, optic disc edema, venous dilatation, and tortuosity mimicking central retinal vein occlusion were noted. Topical and systemic corticos- teroid treatment provided rapid functional and clinical re- habilitation.

Özet

Tek taraflı ani görme kaybı ile başvuran 45 yaşındaki olgu- nun oftalmolojik muayenesinde frosted branch angiitis ve eşlik eden santral retinal ven tıkanıklığını düşündüren tablo mevcuttu. Frosted branch angiitis için tipik olan retina da- marlarında krem renkli eksudasyon tarzında yoğun ve yay- gın kılıflanma bulgusu dışında bu tabloya santral retinal ven tıkanıklığına benzeyen yaygın retina içi ve subhyaloid hemoraji, optik disk ödemi ve venöz dilatasyon ile venlerde kıvrımlanma artışı da eşlik ediyordu. Topikal ve sistemik kortikosteroid tedavisi ile hızlı fonksiyonel ve klinik düzelme sağlandı.
