[Anemia as the cause of bilateral papilledema].

N Wirtz1, S Biester, P Weckerle, M Lüke.   

Abstract

The case of a 41-year-old male patient is described who presented with progressive deterioration of vision in both eyes. The results of laboratory tests and magnetic resonance tomography led to the suspicion of a plasmacytoma, which was confirmed by serum electrophoresis. Treatment with two cycles of vincristine, adriamycine and dexamethasone led to a regression of the papilledema and remission of the system disease.
