Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis, central retinal artery occlusion and optic neuropathy: A new association.
2021
Abstract Purpose To report a patient with chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) complicated by optic neuropathy and central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). Observations CRMO is a noninfectious, inflammatory bone disorder. It is thought to be an autoimmune condition related to an imbalance of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Retinal vasculitis has been reported in a patient with CRMO but not CRAO or optic neuropathy. Conclusions We expanded the list of ophthalmic involvement of CRMO to include CRAO and optic neuropathy.
