Antireconverin antibodies in ocular chronic graft versus host disease: A new cause of nonparaneoplasic autoimmune retinopathy.

Introduction: A case of a 48-year-old male with a nonparaneoplasic autoinmune retinopathy (nPAIR) due to chronic graft versus host disease (GVHD) after an allogenic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is described.

Case Report: The patient developed a bilateral rapidly progressive loss of visual acuity with bilateral optic disc edema and bilateral cystoid macular edema (CME) in the funduscopy, a ring scotoma in the visual field (VF) and photoreceptors dysfunction in the electroretinogram (ERG) 210 days after the ASCT. After ruling out other causes, the suspicion of autoimmune retinopathy (AIR) led to the study of antirecoverin antibodies which resulted positive.
