Methods: Twenty-four eyes of 19 patients (10 males-53%; 9 females-47%; mean age of 44.
Terson's Syndrome with Roth Spot-Resembling Features and Third Nerve Palsy without Radiologically Diagnosed Subarachnoid Haemorrhage.
Vision (Basel)
October 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Medical School, University of Patras, 26504 Patras, Greece.
We report an unusual case of pupil-involving third nerve palsy associated with Terson's syndrome that resulted in the diagnosis of a right posterior communicating artery aneurysm. Interestingly, Terson's syndrome presented with Roth spot-resembling features, accompanied by third nerve palsy in a patient without any disturbance of consciousness. To our knowledge, the association of Terson's syndrome with third nerve palsy has not been described before in the absence of radiologically diagnosed subarachnoid haemorrhage.

Unit of Neurosurgery, S. Elia Hospital, Caltanissetta, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- - Terson syndrome (TS) is an eye condition linked to subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) that causes bleeding in the eye, leading to visual impairment, and can affect one or both eyes unevenly.
- - A 52-year-old woman experienced TS after a right middle cerebral artery aneurysm rupture during sex, but surprisingly, she reported significant visual issues in her left eye while the right eye showed more damage.
- - TS usually causes symptoms in both eyes, but in this case, the symptoms were predominantly found in the eye opposite to the affected hemisphere, making it an unusual presentation.
Terson syndrome in association with sub-arachnoid hemorrhage: a case report.
Ann Med Surg (Lond)
September 2024
Nepalese Army Institute of Health Sciences, Kathmandu.
Article Synopsis
- Terson syndrome is marked by intraocular hemorrhage related to brain injuries, with a notable incidence of 10-40% following sub-arachnoid hemorrhage.
- A case study of a 48-year-old woman with sub-arachnoid hemorrhage showed significant visual impairment due to vitreous hemorrhage, which improved after treating an aneurysm in a major artery.
- Timely ophthalmic evaluations are crucial for diagnosing Terson syndrome in patients with sub-arachnoid hemorrhage, as early intervention can help prevent permanent visual loss.

Department of Neurosurgery, General University Hospital of Heraklion, Heraklion, Crete, Greece.
Article Synopsis
- Terson's syndrome (TS) is an eye condition linked to subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) that can cause vision problems, but its details are not well understood.
- A 52-year-old man who had a severe headache and SAH developed TS three weeks later, resulting in blurred vision, and required successful surgical treatment.
- This case highlights the need for increased awareness among medical professionals about TS as a potential complication of SAH, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment for better outcomes.
Factors affecting anatomical and visual outcomes in Terson syndrome managed by surgery or observation.
Eye (Lond)
October 2024
Royal Berkshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, London Road, Reading, RG1 5AN, UK.
Article Synopsis
- This study reviews the visual outcomes and factors affecting patients with Terson syndrome (TS) treated either with observation or surgery (pars plana vitrectomy, PPV).
- Out of 117 eyes from 81 patients, the group that underwent surgery had worse initial visual acuity but showed similar final visual outcomes compared to the conservative management group.
- The results indicate that while surgery can lead to quicker visual recovery, it poses a risk of intraoperative retinal tears if surgery is delayed beyond three months, and complications like epiretinal membrane (ERM) and retinal detachment are not linked to the management approach or timing.
Terson Syndrome Diagnosed by Ocular Point of Care Ultrasound on the Medical Floor.
POCUS J
April 2024
Department of Long-Term Unscheduled Care, Harrogate and District Foundation Trust Harrogate, Yorkshire UK.
Article Synopsis
- Accurately assessing ocular complications in acute care for intracranial issues can be difficult, yet these complications often lead to significant health problems.
- A case report details a 63-year-old man with monocular diplopia due to subacute traumatic brain injury and localized subarachnoid hemorrhage, where ocular point of care ultrasound (POCUS) identified vitreous hemorrhage.
- The diagnosis of Terson syndrome, linked to poor outcomes, was made when ophthalmoscopy was not feasible, demonstrating how POCUS can be a valuable tool in acute settings for evaluating eye complications.

Article Synopsis
- * A 17-year-old patient experienced vitreous bleeding after subarachnoid hemorrhage; surgery revealed significant hemorrhages and a delayed MH developed a week later.
- * The study indicates that pressures from the hemorrhages can lead to MH formation, and suggests early surgical intervention to prevent potential retinal damage if the MH doesn't close on its own.

Article Synopsis
- * The case study highlights a 36-year-old woman who suddenly lost vision in both eyes and became unconscious; CT scans revealed severe intracerebral hemorrhage and bilateral retinal hemorrhages related to increased intracranial pressure.
- * The case underscores the need for radiologists to thoroughly check for retinal hemorrhage during imaging in severe intracranial hemorrhages, as this can significantly affect clinical outcomes and inform necessary treatments.

Acute bilateral vision loss after endovascular treatment of an intracranial aneurysm.

April 2024
Department of Department of Ophthalmology, Saarland University Hospital, Homburg, Germany.
Acute bilateral vision loss (ABVL) is a rare and challenging diagnostic issue that is most often caused by a neurological disorder. Since it can be the presenting symptom of potentially life-threatening diseases, priority should be given to excluding such diagnoses. Special caution is required if ABVL symptoms result after an intracranial intervention.

August 2023
Department of Neurosurgery, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany.
Background: Terson syndrome (TS), an intraocular hemorrhage associated with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), occurs in up to 46% of all patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Despite its high incidence, TS is underrepresented in the literature, and patients with aSAH are sometimes not systematically evaluated for the presence of TS in clinical practice. This work aims to raise awareness of TS, reevaluate previous scientific findings, describe risk factors associated with the occurrence of TS, and present our local diagnostic and treatment concept.

Cureus
February 2023
Neurosciences, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre, Jeddah, SAU.
Article Synopsis
- Subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA) is the most common intracranial tumor linked to tuberous sclerosis, often leading to hydrocephalus and increased intracranial pressure as it grows.
- A case study is presented of a 27-year-old male with TS who experienced severe hemorrhagic complications from SEGA, prompting a systematic review of similar cases in scientific literature.
- The review found 14 cases of SEGA-related hemorrhage, showing a prevalence of headaches and good clinical outcomes in most patients, though 20% of cases resulted in death, and complete tumor resection was achieved in about half of the patients.
