Viscosity and retinal vein thrombosis.
Whole-blood and plasma viscosity with haematological and biochemical investigations were measured in 44 patients with retinal vein occlusion. The patients were subdivided on the basis of fluorescein angiographic findings into: 1. Those with large areas of capillary non-perfusion. 2. Those with small areas of capillary non-perfusion. 3. Those with an intact capillary pattern. Capillary non-perfu...
متن کاملRetinal vein thrombosis: pathogenesis and management.
Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is the most common retinal vascular disease after diabetic retinopathy. Owing to its multifactorial nature, however, management of this condition remains a challenge. Of the two main types of RVO, branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) is more prevalent than central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). Most patients develop the disease at an elderly age, and more than half ...
متن کاملInterferon-induced central retinal vein thrombosis.
A middle-aged lady presented with sudden onset of unilateral central retinal vein thrombosis after completing 6 months course of interferon and ribavirin for chronic hepatitis C infection. She had no risk factors and all her thrombophilia workup was normal, however, she was found to be dyslipidemic which may have contributed to atherosclerosis and predispose to thrombosis. Despite anticoagulati...
متن کاملEmergency department investigation of deep vein thrombosis.
OBJECTIVES To apply a previously validated clinical model for predicting pre-test probability of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) to patients attending an emergency department with symptoms suggestive of DVT and assess its reproducibility in the patient population. To measure the diagnostic value of the SimpliRED D-dimer assay in effectively excluding DVT. METHOD Prospective study between March 199...
متن کاملMethylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T mutation and risk of retinal vein thrombosis
BACKGROUND Elevated plasma homocysteine (Hcy) level has been established as a significant risk factor for venous thrombosis and cardiovascular disease. Homozygosity for the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T mutation has been associated with elevated plasma Hcy concentration and may contribute to retinal vein thrombosis (RVT) development. The aim of the present study was to inves...
