[Multiple recurrent occlusions of the retinal and cerebral arteries in a 20-year-old woman].

A 20-year-old woman experienced recurrent and sometimes multiple retinal and cerebral arterial occlusions over a period of 2 1/2 years. Coagulation studies revealed only minor abnormalities such as raised beta-thromboglobulin and an increased euglobulin lysis time which, together with a history of migraine, may have been of etiological significance. The nature of this condition remains obscure and, no satisfactory treatment has been found so far.

[Branch artery occlusion due to focal necrotizing retinitis -- probably caused by toxoplasmosis (author's transl)].

A case of necrotizing retinitis, probably due to toxoplasma gondii, is described in a 21-year-old man. Transient occlusion of the arteriole lying over the lesions was confirmed angiographically. The presence of inflammatory chorioretinal foci in the vicinity of retinal vessels was documented photographically in three other cases. The fundus changes and the field defects in these patients suggested that retinal perfusion had been temporarily impaired. The customary administration of steroids combined with antibiotics appears justified in order to minimise the occurrence of retinal vascular damage in the presence of necrotizing retinitis.
