Blockage of the retinal artery system may occur in the form of central retinal arterial obstruction, branch retinal arterial obstruction, or combination of aforementioned. It may be related to known pre-existing systemic disease or it may be the initial manifestation of a previous undiagnosed systemic abnormality. The authors evaluatea the clinical course of 35 cases of retinal artery occlusion at Department of Ophthalmology, Pusan Paik Hospital Inje Mgdical College from September, 1979 to June, 1988.

The authors present a case of central retinal artery occlusion successfully treated by surgery combined with medical treatment. The patient was a 53-year-old Korean female who had central retinal artery occlusion with 3 hours duration. Her vision was F.C. 20 cm on admission and improved to I.O by paracentesis followed by medical treatment for 9 days.

Carotid (angioplasty and) stenting is alternative treatment modality to carotid endartectomy, due to potential benefits in several indications. However, there are the diverse complications associated with this. We report a rare case of central retinal artery occlusion associated with carotid stenting.

Central retinal artery occlusion occurs rarely as a complication of spine surgery in prone position, but is quite tragic. The suggested cause are hypotensive anesthesia and increased external ocular pressure by headrest, sand bag or others. We experienced a case of left central retinal artery occlusion(CRAO) after surgery of C4-5 fracture-dislocation using a horseshoe headrest and report this case.

Ophthalmic artery occlusion results in a circulatory disturbance of both central retinal artery and posterior ciliary arteries, causing an ischemia of retina and choroid. On fundus examination, white retinal opacification and cherry-red spot can be noted if central retinal artery occlusion is not associated with lateral posterior ciliary artery obstruction. If, however, central retinal artery occlusion is asssociated with lateral posterior ciliary artery obstruction, the cherry-red spot is no longer visible. The author experienced five patients with a mottled loss of retinal transparency in the macular region. Combined central retinal artery occlusion with obstruction of both medial posterior ciliary artery and lateral posterior ciliary artery were observed in two patients, both central retinal artery occlusion and medial posterior ciliary obstruction in two patients, and central retinal artery occlusion alone in one patient. The fundus findings in all five cases are compatible with an incomplete central retinal artery occlusion which in at least four cases was associated with evidence of choroidal vascular obstruction.
