Unilateral Terson-Like Syndrome in a Patient With a Perinatal Ischemic Stroke.
2020
Terson syndrome typically presents with bilateral hemorrhagic retinopathy associated with acute intracranial bleeding. The authors present a case of neonatal hemispheric ischemic stroke with vasogenic edema and increased intracranial pressure creating a unilateral Terson-like syndrome. Magnetic resonance imaging indicated congenital occlusion of the left internal carotid artery, among other vascular abnormalities. Chronic submacular, peripheral subretinal, and vitreous hemorrhage were observed, suggesting a multilaminar hemorrhagic process resembling Terson syndrome without frank intracranial hemorrhage. The patient underwent successful lens-sparing vitrectomy of the left eye. A unilateral Terson-like syndrome can result from severe cerebral edema following neonatal stroke in the setting of multiple congenital cerebrovascular abnormalities.
