Purpose: This case report describes a unique case of a young patient with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a unilateral Coats-like response, and X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS). Methods: A 9-year-old boy with a history of regressed ROP presented with a unilateral Coats-like response, subretinal exudation, and XLRS. Examination and imaging findings demonstrated a highly unique combination of bilateral retinoschisis and a dramatic unilateral Coats-like response with a large schisis cavity. Results: Treatment with laser photocoagulation and anti-VEGF therapy led to resolution of the subretinal exudative changes. Conclusions: This is the first published description to our knowledge of a patient with a Coats-like response, XLRS, and a history of regressed ROP with resolution after treatment.

Purpose: Posterior segment hemorrhage occurring during or shortly after examination (PSHE) for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a very rare complication. We present a case of and review the literature on PSHE during ROP examination to better characterize this complication. Methods: A case report is presented, followed by a review of similar cases in the literature. Results: An infant undergoing laser photocoagulation for ROP rapidly developed diffuse intraretinal hemorrhages in his right eye during the laser and after a Valsalva event while he was intubated under general anesthesia. The hemorrhages resolved within 1 week. This presentation was similar to those in previously reported cases. Conclusions: PSHE in ROP usually consists of multiple, diffuse, intraretinal hemorrhages that occur within minutes of ROP examination and resolve within a few weeks without any other ocular findings or sequelae. PSHE seems to represent a form of ocular decompression retinopathy.

Effective Use

Purpose: Iris vascular tufts (IVT) are rare biomicroscopic capillary outgrowths from the pupillary margins. Patients are usually asymptomatic until presenting with blurred vision due to spontaneous hyphema or with raised intraocular pressure. Case report: A 61-year-old woman presented to eye casualty with left eye (LE) blurred vision and discomfort for 1 day. Her external ocular examination was unremarkable and visual acuity was 6/6 in the right eye (RE) and 6/9 in the LE. Biomicroscopic examination revealed a 2-mm hyphema in her LE and bilateral multiple small IVT and active bleeding from IVT at the pupillary margin of the LE at the 5 o’clock position. Diagnosis of LE active bleeding from IVT was made and she underwent argon laser photocoagulation directed at the source of bleeding. The bleeding stopped immediately after the second burn. She was followed up for 3 months; her visual acuity was 6/5 and 6/6 in the RE and LE, respectively, with no further problems. Conclusions: Iris vascular tufts are benign and recurrent hemorrhages are unlikely. Therefore, definitive argon laser photocoagulation or surgical treatment are reserved to arrest further episodes of hyphema. Our case demonstrates the effective use of argon laser photocoagulation to completely arrest active bleeding from IVT and excellent recovery of hyphema with no further problems for 5 years.

Introduction: Incontinentia pigmenti (IP) is a rare X-linked neuroectodermal dysplasia affecting multiple organs. One of its most significant ophthalmic manifestations is retinal neovascularization due to retinal ischemia, which has been traditionally treated with laser photocoagulation or cryotherapy. The application of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been reported for the treatment of retinopathy of IP with beneficial results. However, clinicians should be aware of the possible ocular and systemic side effects of the intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF agents.Case Report: A 4-month-old female infant with IP was treated with intravitreal injection of conbercept in both eyes. However, cotton-wool spots were noticed in the left eye 1 week after the injection. Laser photocoagulation was performed as an adjunct treatment. The cotton-wool spots were absorbed 1 month after the first intravitreal injection and have eventually disappeared.Discussion: The cotton-wool spots, after intravitreal injection of conbercept for the treatment of IP, indicated severe retinal ischemia resulting from the neutralization of excessive VEGF, which was shown on fundus photograph and fluorescent angiography. Anti-VEGF agents could cause retinal arteriolar vasoconstriction and artery occlusion on rare occasions. The administration of anti-VEGF agents in pediatric cases with severe neovascularization and retinal ischemia should be carefully considered.
