Branch retinal vein occlusion in a child with ocular sarcoidosis.
American Journal of Ophthalmology 1995 June
PURPOSE/METHODS: A 13-year-old girl had unilateral iridocyclitis and periphlebitis. The periphlebitis exacerbated, and macular edema as well as branch retinal vein occlusion developed. The patient was treated with systemic corticosteroids.
RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS: The lesions responded well to systemic corticosteroids. Histologic diagnosis of sarcoidosis was obtained by transbronchial lung biopsy. Ocular lesions in this child were similar to those seen in adult sarcoidosis. Branch retinal vein occlusion may occur as a rare vascular complication of sarcoidosis.
