Purpose: To report a case of bilateral serous retinal detachment associated with Alport¡¯s syndrome that resolved following intensive blood pressure control and electrolyte imbalance correction.
Case summary: A 50-year-old male patient presented with bilateral lenticonus and bilateral serous retinal detachment. Bilateral serous retinal detachment with retinal flecks characteristic of Alport¡¯s syndrome appeared along with the development of chronic renal failure and hypertension. The following kidney biopsy revealed Alport¡¯s syndrome. After 14 days, the serous detachment resolved and vision recovered following intensive blood pressure control and electrolyte imbalance correction fundus and FA results were nearly normal.
Conclusions: In this case, bilateral serous retinal detachment in Alport¡¯s syndrome resolved with intensive blood pressure control and electrolyte imbalance correction. To the author¡¯s knowledge, this is the first case in South Korea with documentation of the onset and resolution of bilateral serous retinal detachment in Alport¡¯s syndrome.
