Henle fiber layer hemorrhage associated with combined central retinal vein occlusion and cilioretinal artery occlusion: a case report
Abstract Background The purpose of this study is to describe a patient who experienced simultaneous central retinal vein and cilioretinal artery occlusions, as well as perifoveal hemorrhage in the Henle fiber. Case presentation A 67-year-old Iranian woman presented with a 3-day history of reduced vi...

| description | Abstract Background The purpose of this study is to describe a patient who experienced simultaneous central retinal vein and cilioretinal artery occlusions, as well as perifoveal hemorrhage in the Henle fiber. Case presentation A 67-year-old Iranian woman presented with a 3-day history of reduced vision in her left eye. Venous tortuosity and retinal hemorrhage were observed in the retina, together with whitened regions around the fovea, consistent with the diagnosis of central retinal vein occlusion in conjunction with cilioretinal artery occlusion. In structural and en face optical coherence tomography, star-shaped hemorrhages were observed around the fovea, which looked hyperreflective in the Henle fiber layer. Conclusions We present a case of central retinal vein occlusion exacerbated by cilioretinal occlusion and hemorrhage in the Henle fiber layer. The hemorrhage is most likely the result of increased intraluminal pressure in the deep capillary plexus. |
