Retinal artery and vein thrombotic occlusion during pregnancy: markers for familial thrombophilia and adverse pregnancy outcomes
BACKGROUND Ocular vascular occlusion (OVO), first diagnosed during or immediately after giving birth, often reflects superposition of the physiologic thrombophilia of pregnancy on previously undiagnosed underlying familial or acquired thrombophilia associated with spontaneous abortion, eclampsia, or maternal thrombosis. SPECIFIC AIM We describe OVO, first diagnosed during pregnancy or immedia...
متن کاملHeritable thrombophilia and hypofibrinolysis. Possible causes of retinal vein occlusion.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether heritable thrombophilia and hypofibrinolysis were risk factors for retinal vein occlusion. DESIGN Measures of thrombophilia (increased likelihood of thrombus formation) included anticardiolipin antibodies (IgG and IgM), the lupus anticoagulant (including dilute Russell viper venom clotting time), antigenic proteins C and S, and homocysteine. Polymerase chain rea...
متن کاملSulfur Mustard Exposure and Non-Ischemic Central Retinal Vein Occlusion
A 41-year-old man was referred with a complaint of visual loss in his left eye and his best corrected visual acuity was 20/80. Slit lamp examination showed arborizing conjunctival vessels and dry eye. Fundus examination and fluorescein angiography revealed a non-ischemic central retinal vein occlusion. Cardiovascular, rheumatologic, and hematologic work up showed no abnormal findings. An ascert...
متن کاملThrombophilia and retinal vascular occlusion
PURPOSE The purpose of this research was to assess associations of thrombophilia with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), and amaurosis fugax (AF); to evaluate outcomes of normalizing high homocysteine; and to study CRVO, CRAO, and AF developing in estrogens/estrogen agonists in women subsequently shown to have thrombophilia. METHODS Measures of thr...
متن کاملBranch Retinal Vein Occlusion followed by Central Retinal Vein Occlusion
A 59-year-old woman with history of noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus and systemic hypertension presented with decreased vision in her left eye since 2 months ago. Bestcorrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/20 and 20/400 in the right and left eyes respectively. Relative afferent pupillary defect was negative. Anterior segment examination was unremarkable except for mild posterior subcapsula...
