To report a case of sequential bilateral central retinal vein occlusions in a cystic fibrosis patient with hyperhomocysteinemia and hypergamma-globulinemia over 6 years of follow up.
Observational case report of one patient.
A 31 year-old male with a history of cystic fibrosis presented with a central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) in his left eye, followed by a CRVO in his right eye 4 years later. His medical workup was significant for elevated levels of homocysteine and gamma-globulins, which coincided with initiation of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) proceeding his second CRVO.
We describe a case of sequential bilateral central retinal vein occlusions in a cystic fibrosis patient with hyperhomocysteinemia and hypergamma-globulinemia over 6 years of follow up and discuss the important role of these risk factors in retinal venous occlusive disease.
报告一例囊性纤维化患者在6年随访期间先后发生双侧视网膜中央静脉阻塞,该患者同时伴有高同型半胱氨酸血症和高γ球蛋白血症。
对一名患者进行观察性病例报告。
一名有囊性纤维化病史的31岁男性,左眼出现视网膜中央静脉阻塞(CRVO),4年后右眼也出现CRVO。其医学检查显示同型半胱氨酸和γ球蛋白水平升高,这与他第二次CRVO之前开始静脉注射免疫球蛋白(IVIG)的时间相吻合。
我们描述了一例囊性纤维化患者在6年随访期间先后发生双侧视网膜中央静脉阻塞,该患者伴有高同型半胱氨酸血症和高γ球蛋白血症,并讨论了这些危险因素在视网膜静脉阻塞性疾病中的重要作用。
