A 42-year-old female with a known case of hypertension for three years, symptoms of metamorphopsia, and decreased vision in both eyes reported to the ophthalmology outpatient department. There was no recorded history of ocular injury or surgery. Several observational techniques, such as fundus inspection, fundus camera photography, and optical coherence tomography (OCT), were utilized to assess the patient. We referred her to the Department of Dermatology for additional assessment because of her symptoms as well as the appearance of her neck's skin, which matched "plucked chicken skin." There, the diagnosis of pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PE) was confirmed. She was subsequently scheduled for an intravitreal bevacizumab injection called Avastin, which improved her visual acuity.
一名42岁女性,患高血压三年,有视物变形症状且双眼视力下降,前往眼科门诊就诊。无眼部外伤或手术史记录。采用了多种观察技术,如眼底检查、眼底相机摄影及光学相干断层扫描(OCT)来评估该患者。因其症状以及颈部皮肤外观与“拔毛鸡皮”相符,我们将她转诊至皮肤科进行进一步评估。在那里,确诊为弹性假黄瘤(PE)。随后她被安排接受一种名为阿瓦斯汀的玻璃体内贝伐单抗注射,视力得到了改善。
