We report 2 cases of pseudoxanthoma elasticum with angioid streaks and choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in both eyes. Intravitreal ranibizumab (Lucentis) was administered with successful results in both cases.
CNV has been reported to occur in 72% to 86% of patients with angioid streaks. Although uncommon, the impact of CNV is important because it tends to affect people of working age. Based on the effectiveness of ranibizumab in other secondary CNVs, we decided to use it in our patients, observing the functional and anatomical improvement.
我们报告2例双眼患有弹性假黄瘤伴血管样条纹和脉络膜新生血管(CNV)的病例。玻璃体内注射雷珠单抗(Lucentis),两例均取得成功。
据报道,72%至86%的血管样条纹患者会出现CNV。虽然不常见,但CNV的影响很重要,因为它往往影响工作年龄段的人群。基于雷珠单抗在其他继发性CNV中的有效性,我们决定在患者中使用它,并观察其功能和解剖学上的改善情况。
