Abstract
A patient with obliterative retinal vasculitis which, within a few weeks, led to retinal necrosis with fibrous alterations of the central parts of the retina and annular retinal tears in the periphery is reported. The clinical picture is interpreted as bilateral acute retinal necrosis, corresponding to earlier reports in the literature. This patient differs from the case reports known so far in the purely obliterative-vascular progress form of retinal necrosis, lack of uveal involvement, presence of unilateral labyrinthine deafness (probably of vascular origin), and the demonstration of pronounced cerebral atrophy.
