Terson Syndrome: A case Report
Abstract
Abstract:
Purpose: Vitreous or retinal hemorrhage occurring in association with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is known as Terson syndrome (TS). Its incidence is of the order of 10–50% after subarachnoid hemorrhage. We report a case treated by vitrectomy.
Observations: The case was a 43-year-old man who presented with intravitreal hemorrhage in the right eye 24 hours after severe head trauma responsible for bifrontal extradural hematoma. Detection of suspected retinal detachment with persistent hemorrhage by B-mode ocular ultrasonography led to the indication of pars plana vitrectomy with retinal tamponade, which allowed visual rehabilitation without recurrence after 1 year.
Conclusions: Ophthalmologic evaluation by specialized examination and radiology (ocular ultrasound, OCT) is necessary for all patients with TS because early diagnosis and treatment can prevent visual loss and associated complications. Treatment of TS can be conservative and based on periodic monitoring. A pars plana vitrectomy is considered in some cases.
