Article Abstract
The article presents a clinical case of bilateral Terson syndrome caused by the manifestation of acute myeloid leukemia. A 32-year-old man complained of a sharp decrease in vision in both eyes. Spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage occurred secondary to acute myeloid leukemia. Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) amounted to OD=0.01, OS=0.005. The anterior segment was normal in both eyes, voluminous immobile white-gray mass measuring 7-9 DD that completely covered the macula (intense hyperechoic cell suspension with a volume of about / of the vitreous cavity, ultrasound B-scan) were visualized in the posterior pole of the vitreous body of both eyes under conditions of maximum drug-induced mydriasis. Diagnosis: vitreous hemorrhage due to subarachnoid hemorrhage in both eyes secondary to acute myeloid leukemia. Vitrectomy was performed in both eyes. UCVA increased to 0.05 in both eyes. Vitrectomy contributed to improvement of visual functions and patient quality of life.
