Eales' disease with hemiplegia.
A case of Eales' disease with hemiplegia is reported. The patient had a right hemiparesis and a left hemiplegia occurring after a sudden loss of vision in the left eye two years earlier. The diagnosis was based on fluorescein angiography showing neovascularisation, fluorescein leakage, perivascular sheating and hemorrhages and on CT scan showing multiple hypodense lesions in right and left hemispheres and on IDSA showing bilateral occlusion of anterior cerebral arteries. The patient did not have further relapses.
