[Terson's syndrome associated with Arnold-Chiari I malformation].
METHODS
We present a patient with bilateral Terson's syndrome after brainstem surgical decompression as treatment for her Arnold-Chiari I malformation. We have studied and compared the progression of preretinal hemorrhage after Nd:YAG laser treatment of the right eye and observation of the left, and also the formation of an epiretinal membrane in the left eye.


CONCLUSIONS
Treatment of Terson's syndrome is based on observation or surgery according to different criteria. Hyaloidectomy with YAG laser produces good results in selected cases.
