ABSTRACT

We present a case of a woman with idiopathic macular telangiectasia type 1, characterized by the presence of a capillary macroanaeurysm associated with macular edema with a macular star pattern. Several differential diagnoses were proposed, in which the study with a multimodal image was key to clarify the diagnosis. In addition, the various treatments used and their effectiveness are discussed.

ABSTRACT

La intoxicación por ingesta de metanol es una entidad frecuentemente descrita en la literatura, no así la intoxicación vía transdérmica o inhalatoria. Suele cursar con daño multiorgánico variable, entre lo que destaca la afectación visual, neurológica y digestiva, así como las alteraciones metabólicas y electrolíticas que pueden llegar a causar la muerte. El contacto con tolueno por inhalación ocupacional o intencional puede producir también alteraciones neurológicas. En este artículo se expone el caso de una paciente mujer que acude al servicio de urgencias por pérdida visual bilateral secundaria a una intoxicación accidental (inhalatoria-transdérmica) con un disolvente que contenía metanol y tolueno, entre otros compuestos, y que durante el ingreso evoluciona favorablemente tras tratamiento con etanol en perfusión y corticoides


Methanol poisoning is often described in the literature, but not transdermal or inhalational poisoning. It usually involves variable multi-organ damage, among which visual, neurological, and gastrointestinal involvement, as well as the metabolic and electrolyte changes that can lead to death. Contact with toluene by occupational or intentional inhalation may also cause neurological abnormalities. This article describes the case of a female patient who was seen in the Emergency Department due to bilateral visual loss secondary to accidental poisoning (inhalation-transdermal) with a solvent containing methanol and toluene. She had a favourable outcome during admission after treatment with ethanol in perfusion and corticosteroids
