Acute retinal necrosis: a new pathophysiological hypothesis.

J Schwoerer1, P Othenin-Girard, C P Herbort.   

Abstract

A 76-year-old woman with unilateral acute retinal necrosis had an elevated titer of cytomegalovirus (CMV) antibodies with both in the aqueous humor and serum. The serological pattern indicated recent CMV infection, and the Goldmann-Witmer coefficient comparing aqueous and serum titers was above 4 indicating intraocular production of specific antibodies. The clinical characteristics and results as well as a new possible etiopathogenic hypothesis are presented.
