Background: Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia may be complicated by retinal hemorrhages, retinal vein occlusion, serous macular detachment or macular edema. We report a patient with pseudovitelliform subfoveal deposit complicating Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia. Case Report: A 56-year-old man presented with hyperviscosity syndrome due to Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia. After systemic therapy, a large serous retinal detachment persisted in the left eye. A pseudovitelliform subfoveal deposit was observed in the right eye. Conclusion: Pseudovitelliform subfoveal deposits may be part of the spectrum of ocular complications in Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia. They could be due to accumulation of macroglobulins.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
