Paraneoplastic Focal Outer Retinitis and Optic Neuropathy in a Patient with Small Cell Lung Carcinoma and Anti-CRMP5, Anti-HU and Anti-Amphiphysin An…

Our aim is to describe clinical and optical coherence tomographic features of acute paraneoplastic focal outer retinitis associated with optic neuropathy in a patient diagnosed with small cell lung carcinoma. Bilateral focal outer retinitis, bilateral optic disc oedema and vitritis were identified in a patient with progressive bilateral visual loss and ataxia. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) revealed various extents of granular hyperreflectivity and atrophy of the macular outer retinal layers. Serum and cerebrospinal fluid positivity for anti-CRMP5, anti-HU and anti-amphiphysin antibodies intensified the search for an underlying malignancy, and a small cell lung carcin…
