Unklare Ursache einseitiger Erblindung bei normwertigen Entzündungsparametern
摘要
A 70-year-old female patient presented with unilateral blindness of the right eye. As C‑reactive protein (CRP) and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were inconspicuous, a nonarteritic embolic occlusion was assumed; however, after detailed anamnesis large vessel vasculitis (LVV) appeared more likely, which was confirmed by the subsequent imaging diagnostics. This rare case of LVV without an increase in one of the inflammatory parameters CRP or ESR highlights the importance of the medical history and targeted diagnostic procedures.
