SUAREZ BARAZA, J; CALZADO HINOJOSA, J; CARACENA ORDONEZ, JM e MIRALLES DE IMPERIAL, J. Central retinal vein occlusion in a factor V leiden and G21210A prothrombin variant carrier. Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol [online]. 2004, vol.79, n.9, pp.457-460. ISSN 0365-6691.
Case report: A fifty-five year old man complained of diminished visual acuity in his right eye and reported a deep venous thrombosis in his right leg five years ago. Examination showed a central retinal vein occlusion in the right eye. Mutations in the factor V gene and prothrombin gene were found in a thrombophilia study. The patient was anticoagulated and no laser photocoagulation was required. Discussion: Various coagulation disorders induced by genetic mutations are often associated with an increased risk for retinal vein occlusion although there are no statistically significant associations reported in the literature.
