| Popis: | PURPOSE To describe multicolor scanning laser imaging (MSLI) and conventional fundus photography findings in lipemia retinalis (LR). METHODS We report two LR cases. The first case is a 47-year-old diabetic woman with LR secondary to familial hypertriglyceridemia examined with MSLI, conventional fundus photography, and optical coherence tomography (OCT). The second case is a 39-year-old diabetic man with hypertriglyceridemia and LR. He was followed over time with conventional fundus photography of his retina until metabolic control was achieved. RESULTS In the first case, MSLI showed retinal arteries with an intense yellow and retinal veins with a pale yellow color. Fundus photography disclosed only mild pale red vessels. Optical coherence tomography detected macular edema and hyperreflective changes of retinal vessels. In the second case, fundus photography showed vessels with a pale red appearance that normalized after metabolic control of triglycerides. CONCLUSION We described the retinal findings in patients with LR using different image modalities. Specifically, we report the findings with MSLI not previously described. While regular fundus photography may show mild changes in LR, the MSLI modality may show more significant findings assisting in the diagnosis and follow-up of this disease. |
