To report the optical coherence tomographic (OCT) findings in a case of Best's disease.
Observational case report.
Optical coherence tomography was carried out to understand the pathogenesis of Best's disease in a 13-year-old girl.
Optical coherence tomography demonstrated that the lipofuscin accumulated in a cystic space underneath the retinal pigment epithelium in the "pseudohypopyon stage" of Best's disease. It also demonstrated the disruption of the photoreceptors in the "scrambled egg" stage.
These new OCT findings could explain the retention of good visual acuity in the "pseudohypopyon stage" and the loss of visual acuity in the "scrambled egg" stage of Best's disease.
报告一例Best病的光学相干断层扫描(OCT)结果。
观察性病例报告。
对一名13岁女孩进行光学相干断层扫描,以了解Best病的发病机制。
光学相干断层扫描显示,在Best病的“假性前房积脓期”,脂褐素积聚在视网膜色素上皮下方的囊性间隙中。它还显示了在“炒鸡蛋期”光感受器的破坏。
这些新的OCT结果可以解释Best病“假性前房积脓期”视力良好的保留以及“炒鸡蛋期”视力丧失的原因。
