Another case of PORN (bilateral progressive outer retinal necrosis) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

摘要

After 1 month, he presented with a 5-day history of a left visual field defect. Opthalmologic review confirmed concentric constriction of the left visual field, a-left afferent papillary defect and visual acuity of 6/9 bilaterally with near vision N5. The left fundus showed extensive peripheral pigmented mottling with a small, isolated haemorrhage while the right showed more localised and less marked change. Both discs and maculae were healthy. A diagnosis of bilateral acute retinal necrosis secondary to varicella zoster was made. A CT scan of the brain excluded haemorrhage, and MRI scans of the brain and orbits were normal.
