[Pathogenesis of retinopathy in acute pancreatitis].
Several cases of ischemic damage to the retina associated with acute pancreatitis have been reported since 1975. The retinal disease is said to be caused by fat embolism of retinal vessels. However, since occlusions of blood vessels do not adequately explain the severe morphological changes and malfunctions of the retina, other etiological influences or a combination of them must be considered for this ophthalmological complication.
