| Description |
A 23-year-old man suddenly noted blurred vision OS one day prior to presentation. There was an afferent pupillary defect (APD) OS. Funduscopic examination demonstrated disc edema OS. Visual field examination showed a generalized constriction. A brain MRI revealed an acute infarction in the right thalamus. His visual acuity was 20/20 OU. He had an upgaze deficit with slow saccade. A skew deviation was present. A slit lamp examination showed mild corneal pigmentation in both eyes which were otherwise normal. Alpha-galactosidase in his WBC was extremely low (2.2 nmol/mgP/h). Fabry's disease was diagnosed. |
