ABSTRACT

Telangiectasias retinianas são anormalidades vasculares primárias e idiopáticas caracterizadas por dilatações irregulares e incompetência dos vasos retinianos com variados graus de exsudação intra e sub-retiniana. O objetivo desse relato é documentar uma rara associação entre aneurisma miliar de Leber e síndrome de tração vítreomacular bem caracterizada à angiofluoresceinografia e tomografia de coerência óptica. O tratamento realizado foi fotocoagulação com laser de argônio nos aneurismas perimaculares e cirurgia de vitrectomia posterior via pars plana, o que resultou em melhora consistente da acuidade visual. O caso relatado confirma a importância da tomografia de coerência óptica em estudar a interface vítreorretiniana e suas alterações, o que permitiu abordagem completa da doença em questão.


Retinal telangiectasias are idiopatic vascular abnormalities of the retina characterizad by irregular dilatation of the retinal vessels, intraretinal and subretinal exsudation. The aim of this article is to describe the uncommon association of Leber's miliary aneurysms and vitreomacular traction syndrome in a female patient. The diagnosis was established with angiofluoresceinography and optic coherence tomography. The patient was treated with focal photocoagulation with argon green laser directed to the perimacular aneurysms and pars plana posterior vitrectomy. The visual acuity showed great improvement after a four-month follow-up. The present report supports the importance of optic coherence tomography in cases where the vitreoretinal interface must be evaluated, including vascular pathologies, which allowed us to offer a better treatment to this patient.
