Abstract:
In our report, we present the history of four patients diagnosed with retinal arterial macroaneurysm associated with complications. Our aim is to present the varied appearance of the disease and to present the various therapeutic options. Retinal artery macroaneurysm is a rare, but potentially vision-threatening ophthalmic condition. Macroaneurysm develops from the arteriosclerotic transformation of the artery caused by high blood pressure. Macroaneurysms can be asymptomatic, or they can be associated with exudative or hemorrhagic complication which causes visual impairment. Depending on the symptoms, they can be treated with laser photocoagulation, intravitreal injections, or with vitrectomy. Our presented cases also illustrate that each case requires individual consideration because a uniform therapeutic recommendation is still yet to be developed. In addition to the ophthalmic treatment, it is extremely important to refer the patient to internal medicine. Orv Hetil. 2023; 164(42): 1673-1677.
