Small fibrin-platelet emboli caused by prolapsed mitral valves may cause retinal occlusive disease with a wide range of ophthalmic manifestations, including amaurosis fugax in young people, retinal or choroidal arteriolar occlusion, and retinal neovascularization (atypical Eales' disease). Six patients with retinal occusive disease underwent extensive noninvasive cardiac and systemic tests and were found to have prolapsed mitral valves. Patients with unexplained ocular emboli should be examined by a cardiologist for possible mitral valve prolapse.
二尖瓣脱垂引起的小纤维蛋白-血小板栓子可能导致视网膜闭塞性疾病,伴有广泛的眼科表现,包括年轻人的一过性黑矇、视网膜或脉络膜小动脉闭塞以及视网膜新生血管形成(非典型伊尔斯病)。6例视网膜闭塞性疾病患者接受了广泛的非侵入性心脏和全身检查,发现有二尖瓣脱垂。原因不明的眼部栓子患者应由心脏病专家检查是否可能存在二尖瓣脱垂。
