- Abstract:
- BACKGROUND: In several reports, early vitrectomy has been proposed for eyes with vitreous hemorrhage due to Terson syndrome as a means to hasten visual recovery. But the development of nuclear sclerosis and the neurologic problems arising from this disease encourage surgeons to wait for spontaneous resorption, especially with young patients. Although the formation of epiretinal membranes has been described, to the authors' knowledge retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy in Terson syndrome never has been observed. METHODS: The authors report five eyes from four patients with Terson syndrome due to spontaneous aneurysm rupture, in whom retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy developed. RESULTS: The early onset and the severe clinical course of proliferative vitreoretinopathy in these eyes showed parallels to traumatic proliferative vitreoretinopathy. The retina in all eyes could be reattached. CONCLUSION: The authors point out the necessity for accurate and close follow-up and early, extensive surgical treatment in Terson syndrome, especially in patients with a reduced general state of health.
