SCIENTIFIC POSTER_Ana Figueiredo Introduction: Retinal macroaneurysms are described as idiopathic, acquired, round dilations of major retina arterioles, usually singular and unilateral. If located at the posterior pole, they may be associated with macular exudation and hemorrhage resulting in decreased visual acuity. Systemic hypertension is the most common associated risk factor. Pathogenesis of retinal arterial macroaneurysms is not fully...

  SCIENTIFIC POSTER_Ines Coutinho Purpose: Premacular hemorrhage is one major cause of sudden visual loss and occurs in a variety of disorders, among others in retinal arterial macroaneurysms (RAM). Possible therapeutic options include observation, vitrectomy, intravitreal rT-PA injection or laser posterior hyaloidotomy. However, the best treatment is still controversial. We report on 2 cases with premacular haemorrhage due to RAM. The...

Poster Young Joon Jo We report a case of macular hole with ruptured retinal arterial macro aneurysm. 84-year-old female had decreased vision 2 days ago. With fundus examination, dense preretinal and subretinal hemorrhage with ruptured retinal arterial macro aneurysm was detected, we planned vitrectomy for preretinal hemorrhage. After core vitrectomy, ICG assisted ILM peeling was done. After dense subILM hemorrhage was removed. MH was...

Poster 3 Joaquin Castro Navarro Advantages: To report a case of an incomplete IRVAN (Idiopathic Retinal Vasculitis, Aneurysms and Neuroretinitis) syndrome. Methods: A 21-year-old women presented with blurred vision for 10 days in her left eye (LE). A complete ocular exploration, including Visual Acuity (VA), anterior and posterior segment examination, fluorescein angiography (FA) was carried out. Complementary exams were also...

Francisco J. Ascaso, Esther Nuñez, Laura Lavilla, María A. Del Buey, José A. Cristóbal (Zaragoza, Spain) Advantages: Macular neurosensory retinal detachments (RD) that present in an atypical fashion constitute a diagnostic challenge to retinal specialists. We recommend observation when they are associated with a congenital retinal macrovessel (CRM). Fluorescein angiography (FA) proves to be valuable in establishing a definitive...
