Central retinal artery and vein occlusion as a complication of persistent hyaloid artery – a case report

Abstract: Background In this case report, we present for the first time central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) and central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) as a complication of persistent hyaloid artery (PHA). Case presentation In August 2019, a six-year-old male patient manifested right eye (RE) excessive tearing, conjunctival injection and pain. On examination, RE demonstrated light perception and intraocular pressure of 36 mmHg. The diagnoses of neovascular glaucoma, CRVO and CRAO were established as affirmed with fl… Show more

“…To our knowledge, there are at least 24 case reports of pediatric CRVO in the literature to date with patients ranging from 20 months to 18 years. Among these, neovascularization occurred in six cases, [4][5][6][7][8][9] four being diagnosed at presentation. [5][6][7][8] The longest time interval previously reported between the initial CRVO and neovascularization was 8 months in a case of a CRVO secondary to antiphospholipid syndrome.…”
