Abstract

The diagnostic findings, therapy and course of disease are described for a case of central venous occlusion in Wyburn-Mason-Syndrome. The diagnosis was based on OCT, fluorescein angiography and cMRI. In addition, due to the macular edema an intravitreal injection with Ranibizumab was applied. The macular edema regressed and further Ranibizumab-injections as well as a panretinal laser-coagulation and possibly a cryocoagulation were planned. For a central venous occlusion with macular edema also in Wyburn-Mason-Syndrome an intravitreal anti-VEGF-inhibition leads to an improvement.
