Valsalva retinopathy associated with an oratorical contest Kim JY; Lee DH; Lee JH; Yoon IeNKorean J Ophthalmol 2009[Dec]; 23 (4): 318-20A 17-year-old man presented to us with a chief complaint of decreased visual acuity accompanied by central scotoma. There was nothing unusual in his medical history other than a recent oratorical contest. At the time of initial diagnosis, the corrected visual acuity was 20/20 in the right eye and 20/100 in the left eye. No significant findings were apparent on ophthalmic evaluation. On fundoscopy, there was a dumbbell-shaped macular bleed with a well-defined margin in the left eye. The clinical course was closely monitored along with drug therapy. Four weeks post presentation, the pre-retinal hemorrhage had nearly resolved. On fluorescein angiography, no significant findings were observed. In the left eye, the corrected visual acuity had improved to 20/25. Valsalva retinopathy is a pathology that occurs when a sudden increase in intra-thoracic pressure or abdominal pressure occurs in an otherwise healthy person. Here we report a case of Valsalva retinopathy occurring following an oratorical contest along with a review of the relevant literature.|*Music[MESH]|*Valsalva Maneuver[MESH]|Adolescent[MESH]|Fluorescein Angiography[MESH]|Follow-Up Studies[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Remission, Spontaneous[MESH]|Retinal Diseases/diagnosis/*etiology[MESH]|Tomography, Optical Coherence[MESH]|Visual Acuity[MESH] |
