Resumo: Our aim was to report a case of bilateral acute retinal necrosis (ARN). An asymptomatic 41-year-old female with history of AIDS was referred for screening of ocular manifestations of HIV. Patient had a BCVA of 20/40 OU. Slit-lamp examination showed bilateral inflammatory reaction of the anterior chamber. Fundus examination revealed bilateral necrotizing retinitis with retinal hemorrhages. Aqueous humor puncture was positive for VZV. A bilateral ARN was diagnosed and intravenous acyclovir and foscarnet intravitreal injections were initiated. Patient developed a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in OD within a week. Vitrectomy with endolaser and silicone oil tamponade was performed. Within four months, BCVA was 20/200 in OD and 20/50 in OS and inflammation was controlled. ARN may be asymptomatic in immunocompromised patients and progress even with treatment. A regular ophthalmologic evaluation is recommended in patients with AIDS, even in the absence of symptoms.

Uma doente assintomática de 41 anos, com história de SIDA, foi referenciada para rastreio de manifestações oculares de VIH. Apresentava uma MAVC bilateral de 20/40. A biomicroscopia revelava uma reação inflamatória bilateral da câmara anterior. Na fundoscopia, observava-se uma retinite necrotizante bilateral com hemorragias retinianas. A punção de humor aquoso foi positiva para VVZ. Diagnosticou-se NRA e iniciaram-se injeções intravítreas de foscarnet e aciclovir endovenoso. A doente desenvolveu um descolamento de retina regmatogéneo dentro de uma semana em OD. Realizou-se vitrectomia, endolaser e tamponamento com óleo de silicone. Dentro de quatro meses, a MAVC era de 20/200 OD e 20/50 OE e a inflamação estava controlada. A NRA pode ser assintomática em imunodeprimidos e progredir mesmo sob tratamento. Uma avaliação oftalmológica regular deve ser recomendada em doentes com SIDA, mesmo na ausência de sintomas.Ajnet2022-09-30T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/reporthttps://doi.org/10.48560/rspo.26499eng1646-69501646-6950Carreira, Ana RitaParis, AriannaCardoso, JoãoToutee, AdelaideBodaghi, Bahraminfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-10-13T20:30:16Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/26499Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:11:23.224158Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
