title: [Primary retinal vasculitis].
abstract: METHODS
  We present the case of a 22-year-old Caucasian female who consulted because of a brief episode of blurred vision in her right eye. Funduscopic findings in right eye included marked venous tortuousness and roundish paramacular haemorrhages. A slight venous tortuousness in left eye. Fluorescein angiography showed a segmentary retinal vasculitis affecting medium calibre vessels of the posterior pole. Complementary examinations ruled out any systemic involvement. After therapy with oral corticoesteroids the case evolves to remission.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The diagnosis of retinal vasculitis is achieved by the performance of ophthalmoscopy and fluorescein angiography. Prior studies have ruled out the need for complementary examinations to find any systemic involvement in patients.
