The case of a patient who developed decreased vision while taking topiramate (TPM) for symptomatic epilepsy is described. Ophthalmological examination revealed findings suggestive of maculopathy. TPM was discontinued; however, vision failed to improve significantly over 6 months of follow-up. We hypothesize that the patient's maculopathy was induced by TPM. TPM, like vigabatrin, may exert retinal toxicity causing persistent visual impairment.
描述了一名有症状性癫痫患者在服用托吡酯(TPM)期间出现视力下降的病例。眼科检查发现提示存在黄斑病变。停用了TPM;然而,在6个月的随访中视力未能显著改善。我们推测该患者的黄斑病变是由TPM引起的。TPM与氨己烯酸一样,可能会产生视网膜毒性,导致持续性视力损害。
