We report a case of branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) in a healthy pregnant woman.
A 29-year-old pregnant woman presented with decreased vision in her left eye. She had a pale retina with macular edema consistent with BRAO. An extensive workup was performed to determine an etiologic factor. All test results were within normal limits except for her factor VIII activity. Her visual acuity improved from finger counting to 20/30 over 2 months without any treatment.
This case suggests that BRAO can occur in healthy patients without any systemic or ocular disorders.
BRAO can occur in healthy patients without any systemic or ocular disorders, despite an extensile evaluation.
我们报告一例健康孕妇发生视网膜分支动脉阻塞(BRAO)的病例。
一名29岁孕妇因左眼视力下降就诊。她的视网膜苍白,伴有与BRAO相符的黄斑水肿。进行了全面检查以确定病因。除因子VIII活性外,所有检查结果均在正常范围内。未经任何治疗,其视力在2个月内从仅能数指提高到了20/30。
该病例表明,BRAO可发生于无任何全身性或眼部疾病的健康患者。
尽管进行了全面评估,但BRAO仍可发生于无任何全身性或眼部疾病的健康患者。
