Abstract
A patient with subretinal and preretinal hemorrhage after secondary systemic amyloidosis due to familial Mediterranean fever is presented. Case presentation. A 30-year-old woman with secondary systemic amyloidosis secondary to familial Mediterranean fever presented with painless visual loss in the right eye. The examination demonstrated multiple subretinal and preretinal hemorrhages, massive deposits which may represent amyloid material at the left macular region. After 6 months, the hemorrhages disappeared, but deposits persisted. The macular deposition and hemorrhage is an uncommon manifestation of secondary systemic amyloidosis secondary to familial Mediterranean fever. Further evidence is necessary to understand the nature of these deposits and their relevance to secondary systemic amyloidosis and/or familial Mediterranean fever.
