To document a case of diffuse subretinal fibrosis and uveitis syndrome occurring alongside vitreoretinal traction syndrome in an older female patient, highlighting the 4-year gap between symptom onset in each eye.
Key Findings:
The patient exhibited a 4-year gap between the onset of symptoms in each eye.
Bilateral SFU syndrome was complicated by VRT syndrome and retinal neovascularization.
Anti-VEGF therapy provided a partial therapeutic response for macular edema, highlighting the need for tailored management.
Interpretation:
SFU syndrome is a rare inflammatory condition with a complex clinical presentation and challenging treatment options, emphasizing the need for careful diagnosis and individualized management strategies.
Limitations:
Limited clinical accounts and evidence-driven treatment strategies for SFU syndrome, highlighting the need for more comprehensive case reports.
Inconsistent clinical trajectories and absence of uniform management protocols, which complicate treatment outcomes.
Conclusion:
SFU syndrome is uncommon and can present with significant complications. Treatment may delay subretinal fibrosis progression, and anti-VEGF therapy can help manage associated macular edema, underscoring the importance of tailored approaches in future cases.
