Papillary capillary activation in Terson syndrome.
We report the immunopathology and histopathology of a patient with Terson syndrome. The design was an observational case-report. Histopathology and immunohistochemical staining for endoglin (CD105) of an eye from a patient with subarachnoid haemorrhage and Terson syndrome was performed. Immunohistology revealed high papillary endoglin expression. Up-regulation of endoglin indicates activation of endothelial cells. This may suggest a regeneration process after the acute insult.
