Correction: Exudative Retinal Detachment Associated with Acute Retinal Necrosis
Background
Acute retinal necrosis is a serious viral retinitis that can lead to significant complications, including retinal detachment. The occurrence of ERD in the early stages of ARN, particularly due to varicella zoster virus, is rare.
Data Highlights
No numerical or trial data is presented in the correction notice.
Key Findings
Ying Zhu was incorrectly omitted as a co-equal author in the original article.
The authorship statement has been updated to reflect equal contribution from both Ying Zhu and Han Wang.
Acute retinal necrosis can present with exudative retinal detachment, which is uncommon.
ARN is associated with serious complications, necessitating prompt treatment.
VZV is a significant cause of ARN in adults.
Clinical Implications
Accurate authorship is crucial for the integrity of scientific literature. Clinicians should be aware of the potential for unusual presentations of ARN, including ERD, to ensure timely and appropriate management.
Conclusion
The correction emphasizes the importance of accurate authorship in clinical research and highlights the unusual presentation of ARN with ERD.
