  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 59-year-old male developed bilateral cytomegalovirus retinitis after sustained systemic cyclophosphamide therapy for lung cancer. Visual impairment in the left eye had been present for the foregoing 10 weeks. The right eye was asymptomatic. We treated the patient with sys-temic ganciclovir at the dosis of 10 mg/kg. Improvement in visual acuity and fundus lesion resulted 3 weeks after initiation of treatment.Maintenance therapy with 6 mg/kg of ganciclovir was effective after the cytomegalovirus retinitis recurred in the right eye after discontinuation of ganciclovir.Retinal detachment with atrophic holes developed in the left eye 4 months after first seen by us. We performed pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil injection with success. Atrophic areas in the right fundus were treated by argon laser photocoagulation, The final visual acuity was 20/20 right and hand motion left.
