[Early treatment of idiopathic vasculitis, aneurysms and neuroretinitis (IRVAN). A case report].

CASE REPORT A 55 year old woman presented with retinal vasculitis, multiple aneurysms, macular exudation and widespread retinal nonperfusion and was diagnosed with IRVAN. She was treated with panretinal laser photocoagulation. After 3 years of follow up visual acuity remains stable and there are no complications due to ischaemic sequelae. DISCUSSION IRVAN syndrome with neovascularisation can progress rapidly despite laser treatment. Panretinal laser photocoagulation has to be considered in the early stages as it is effective in stopping the progression of ischaemia.
