Abstract
The clinical evaluation was done in eight eyes of four patients with bilateral branch retinal vein occlusion. The onset of age was from 36 to 65 years, and three patients were women. Hypertension was the most common associated systemic disease. Retinal neovascularization was complicated in six eyes, and five eyes had vitreous hemorrhage. The vitrectomy was performed in three eyes. We believe that branch retinal vein occlusion associated with hypertension should be followed carefully in the fellow eyes.
1984년 12월부터 1992년 1월까지 망막분지정맥폐쇄환자 4명 8안을 대상으로 임상적 고찰을 하였다. 발병연령은 36세에서 65세까지였고, 반대쪽 눈에 발병하기까지는 3년 이하가 3명이였으며 여자가 3명이였다. 동반질환은 고혈압이 3명으로 가장 많았다. 합병증으로 망막신생혈관이 6안(75%)에서 발생하였으며 초자체 출혈을 갖는 5안중 3안에서 초자체 절제술을 시행하였다. 고혈압이 있는 60대 까지의 여성에서 발생한 망막분지정맥폐쇄는 반대쪽 눈에 대한 주의 깊은 추적검사가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
