This is the second reported case of spontaneous vitreous base detachment in a patient with neurofibromatosis Type 1. This is the first bilateral case but shares similarities with the first published case. Purpose: We describe a unique case of bilateral spontaneous vitreous base detachment in a female patient with neurofibromatosis Type 1 and no known history of ocular injury. This serves to add further to the medical literature. Discussion: Vitreous base detachments usually occur after significant ocular trauma. There is only one other published case of this occurring spontaneously also in a female patient with neurofibromatosis Type 1. Conclusion: This suggests a rare association between neurofibromatosis Type 1 and spontaneous detachment of the vitreous base. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
