Signs of hydroxychloroquine toxicity in a patient with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Archivos de la Sociedad Española de Oftalmología 2016 September
CLINICAL CASE: The case is presented of a 56 year-old patient diagnosed with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and on treatment with hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). A Spectral Domain-Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) was performed that showed changes in the outer retina in the eye with macular detachment, as well as the «flying saucer» sign in the other eye. After a complete retinopexy the «flying saucer» sign was still present.
DISCUSSION: SD-OCT could be used as a test in order to reveal HCQ toxicity in the event of retinal detachment. In this case, this technique shows abnormalities such as a hyper-reflective line in the outer retina layers.
