BACKGROUND: Purtscher's retinopathy and renal cortical necrosis are two rare
vaso-occlusive complications of acute pancreatitis. Purtscher's retinopathy
causes sudden impairment of vision, which was first reported in a patient with
head trauma. Subsequently, it was also reported as a complication of acute
pancreatitis and few other clinical conditions. Acute pancreatitis also rarely
causes renal cortical necrosis leading to acute kidney injury. However, the
simultaneous presence of both complications is rarely reported. CASE
PRESENTATION: A 20-year-old Bengali man presented to our hospital with a history
of acute upper abdominal pain, vomiting, anuria, and disorientation. He was
ultimately found to have bilateral complete blindness due to Purtscher's
retinopathy and acute kidney injury due to renal cortical necrosis, as sequelae
of acute pancreatitis. He became dialysis-dependent, his vision did not recover,
and he died 16 months after diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: This case highlights
Purtscher's retinopathy and renal cortical necrosis might be considered as a
recognized pair complication of acute pancreatitis.
