Evidence of uveal effusion in HELLP syndrome detected by UWF full range SS-OCTA!
A 36-year-old female patient diagnosed as HELLP syndrome-associated chorioretinopathy with uveal effusion after a cesarean delivery due to preeclampsia presented extensive exudative retinal, choroidal detachments in her both eyes. UWF full range SS-OCTA revealed bilateral choriocapillaris hypointensity, providing direct evidence of choroidal ischemic insult.
This case was published in , authored by Dr. Jiateng Lin from Rongcheng Eye Hospital and Dr. Shancheng Si from Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital Eye Center.
A 400kHz speed swept source OCTA ( , Medical) was used in this case to acquire 24mmx20mm UWF OCTA images for choriocapillaris imaging with AI-based segmentation algorithm. Multiple retinal and choroidal quantifications are available on device for comprehensive approach to disease diagnosis and management.
