[A case of papillophlebitis]
Abstract:
A case history of a young man with recurrent papillophlebitis. The fluorescein angiogram showed an extensive hyperfluorescence of the disk and surrounding retinal veins in the venous and late phase. The electro-ophthalmological findings were normal in both eyes, while computerized perimetry demonstrated an enlarged blind spot in the bad eye but was normal in the other. The paper concludes with a description of the differential diagnosis of papillophlebitis, papillitis and papilledema caused by vascular occlusive disease or increased intracranial pressure.
