Unilateral branch retinal artery occlusion in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus: A case report.

Medicine (Baltimore)

March 2022

Department of Ophthalmology, Foshan Second People's Hospital, 78 Weiguo Road, Chancheng District, Foshan, Guangdong Province, China.

Rationale: Ocular involvements in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are not rare but extremely varied. Here we present a very meaningful case with unilateral branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) secondary to undetected SLE, for which immunotherapy showed significant effect, which led to complete resolution of macular edema.

Patient Concerns: A 31-year-old female patient, so far without any previous illnesses, presented with a sudden onset of painless diminution of vision in left eye for 5 days.

Background: Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is an emergent ophthalmic disease which is commonly caused by atherosclerosis, thromboembolism, and arteriospasm. Here, we report a case of CRAO which is caused by extreme rare bilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) hypoplasia complicated with patent foramen ovale (PFO). The cardiogenic emboli blocked central retinal artery through unclosed foramen ovale and specific blood flow pathway.

Diagnosis of non-consensus transient ischaemic attacks with focal, negative, and non-progressive symptoms: population-based validation by investigation and prognosis.

Lancet

March 2021

Wolfson Centre for the Prevention of Stroke and Dementia, Nuffield Department of Clinical Neuroscience, John Radcliffe Hospital, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK. Electronic address:

Background: Diagnosis of transient ischaemic attacks (TIAs) can be difficult. There is consensus on classic symptoms (eg, motor weakness, dysphasia, hemianopia, monocular visual loss) but no consensus on several monosymptomatic events with sudden-onset, non-progressive, focal negative symptoms (eg, isolated diplopia, dysarthria, vertigo, ataxia, sensory loss, and bilateral visual disturbance), with much variation in investigation and treatment.

Methods: We prospectively ascertained and investigated all strokes and sudden onset transient neurological symptoms in a population of 92 728 people (no age restrictions) from Oxfordshire, UK, who sought medical attention at nine primary care practices or at the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, UK (Oxford Vascular Study).
