Exudative retinal detachment in familial pulmonary hypertension

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Abstract In a family with pulmonary hypertension, one woman developed bilateral exudative retinal detachments and her daughter developed a unilateral exudative retinal detachment during pregnancy. Treatment with Acetazolamide provided quick recovery in the bilateral case, whereas the unilateral exudative detachment recovered without treatment after delivery. Exudative retinal detachments have not previously been associated with pulmonary hypertension. 1991 Institution Acta Ophthalmologica Scandinavica
