Concurrent branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) and central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) are the infrequently encountered clinical entities, with only a handful of cases elaborated in the literature. This case series describes three patients who presented with a dramatic fundus appearance that led to the diagnosis of unilateral BRAO and CRVO. Hypertension could be identified as a predisposing factor in only one patient. All three patients had relatively good visual acuity at presentation. The role of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography in confirming the simultaneous presence of BRAO is also illustrated.
并发分支视网膜动脉阻塞(BRAO)和视网膜中央静脉阻塞(CRVO)是临床中较少见的情况,文献中仅有少数病例报道。本病例系列描述了三名患者,他们眼底表现显著,最终诊断为单侧BRAO和CRVO。仅一名患者可确定高血压为诱发因素。所有三名患者就诊时视力相对较好。本文还阐述了频域光学相干断层扫描在确诊同时存在BRAO中的作用。
