Purpose:
Angular sign of Henle fiber layer hyperreflectivity is a marker of Henle fibre layer ischemia. Our aim is to describe angular sign of Henle fiber layer hyperreflectivity as a novel optical coherence tomography sign in Purtscher and Purtscher-like retinopathy.
Methods:
Here, we present three cases, one classical Purtscher retinopathy and two Purtscher-like retinopathy who had angular sign of Henle fiber layer hyperreflectivity on spectral domain optical coherence tomography imaging.
Results:
Modalities such as color fundus photography, cross-sectional optical coherence tomography, optical coherence tomography angiography, and fluorescein angiography were used.
Conclusion:
Presence of angular sign of Henle fiber layer hyperreflectivity in Purtscher retinopathy and Purtscher-like retinopathy points toward a deep capillary plexus insult and has prognostic implications.
