A RARE CASE OF CENTRAL RETINAL VEIN OCCLUSION WITH CILIORETINAL ARTERY OBSTRUCTION IN A YOUNG FEMALE-A CASE REPORT
Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 20
Abstract
The association of cilioretinal artery occlusion with central retinal vein occlusion is very rare and not commonly seen in elderly. The so far reported cases are commonly seen in males. • The pathogenesis of this condition has not yet been established. • A cilioretinal artery exists in about 30% of individuals. It is a vessel that perfuses the retina and is derived directly from the posterior ciliary circulation rather than from the central retinal artery
