| Popis: | Purpose: To report a case of spontaneous recurrent significant subretinal hemorrhage in a patient on rivaroxaban (Xarelto). Methods: A case report of a 63-year-old man on rivaroxaban with peripapillary choroidal neovascular membrane and macula involving subretinal hemorrhage. Results: Improvement in visual acuity from 20/200 to 20/30 and restoration of foveal contour after pneumatic displacement of hemorrhage with C3F8 gas and subsequent treatment with ranibizumab. Conclusion: The authors report a case of recurrent subretinal hemorrhage associated with rivaroxaban use. Pneumatic displacement and subsequent treatment of choroidal neovascular membrane with intravitreal ranibizumab improved visual acuity. |
