Periarteriolar-Sparing Retinal Edema in Acute Central Retinal Artery Occlusion.
A 56-year-old man was referred to our hospital about 48 h after sudden onset of painless central visual loss in his right eye (OD) on a winter morning. He had a more than 25-year history of systemic hypertension and smoking. Funduscopic observation showed striated retinal whitening in the macular region, faint cotton-wool patches around the optic disc, and segmental narrowing of the retinal art...
متن کاملCentral Retinal Artery Occlusion Masquerading as Branch Retinal Artery Occlusion
Dear Editor, Retinal artery occlusion (RAO) is characterized by attenuated arterioles and ischemic retinal opacity, which suggest retinal infarction. Branch RAO (BRAO) has a more favorable prognosis than central RAO (CRAO). CRAO and BRAO can be differentiated based on the isch-emic retinal opacity area, location of the attenuated vessels , and a cherry-red spot [1]. However, we encountered a ca...
متن کاملMultimodal Images of Acute Central Retinal Artery Occlusion
Two illustrative cases of acute central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) are presented with multimodal imaging, including fluorescein angiography (FA) and commercially available optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A). In both patients, retinal ischemia was imaged well using both FA and OCT-A, and the two imaging studies provided comparable pictures. OCT-A provides useful information fo...
متن کاملSelective intraarterial fibrinolysis of acute central retinal artery occlusion.
PURPOSE To evaluate the outcome of our patients with central retinal artery occlusion after local fibrinolysis and to compare these data with results reported in the literature. MATERIAL AND METHODS Over a period of 7 years, 22 patients (11 male, 11 female, mean age 64.6 +/- 12.1 years) were treated with super-selective local fibrinolysis. In 1 case, treatment was carried out via the maxillar...
متن کاملSelective Intra-Arterial Fibrinolysis of Acute Central Retinal Artery Occlusion
Background and Purpose—Occlusion of the central retinal artery (CRAO) causes a sudden decrease of monocular vision. Because early restoration of blood flow may improve outcome, we attempted to treat CRAO with selective intra-arterial fibrinolysis. Methods—Intra-arterial fibrinolysis was performed within 6 hours after symptom onset in 17 patients with thromboembolic CRAO. Symptoms were painless,...
