Hypo-Oestrogenaemia in retinal vasculopathy due to primary antiphospholipid antibody syndrome
Purpose:
To report hypo-estrogenemic state in a case of recurrent vitreous hemorrhages due to primary antiphospholipid antibody syndrome.
Methods:
Interventional case report. A 40-year-old woman presented with recurrent vitreous hemorrhages. Treated initially with laser photocoagulation followed by hormone replacement therapy.
Results:
Cessation of vitreous hemorrhage since starting hormone replacement therapy (twenty months ago).
Conclusions:
This is the first documented case of hypo-estrogenemia in lupus anticoagulant retinopathy. The response of this condition to estrogen is worth exploring. (Eur J Ophthalmol 2003; 13: 819-21).
