title: [Retinopathic visual loss in hemorrhagic necrotizing pancreatitis].
abstract: Pancreatic retinopathies have been described with reference to case histories since 1975. Descriptions differed greatly from each other with regard to onset, development, and residual vision along with impairment. Two of the author's own cases are reported in this paper. Agreement with pathological patterns published elsewhere (alcohol-related genesis, age) are compared to points of difference (juncture of manifestation, final condition). Aetiology has proved to be of multifactorial nature, with presence and involvement of fat embolism or granulocyte aggregation being possible. Reference is made to elements with relevance to prognosis. The demand is made for no-delay treatment and routine checks.
