Cancer-associated retinopathy is an uncommon paraneoplastic syndrome. It is characterised by retinal antigen autoantibodies causing rod and cone dysfunction and abnormal electroretinography findings with consequent progressive visual loss.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Our patient, known to have a primary cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, presented with unilateral blurred vision as well as a disturbance in colour and night vision. Electroretinography findings of reduced a and b waves in the right eye, together with a fundoscopic appearance of a mottled retinal pigment epithelium, attenuated blood vessels and optic disc pallor were consistent with unilateral cancer-associated retinopathy. Posterior subtenon injections of triamcinolone were administered to control active disease. With periocular steroid injections, at 4 years, our patient\u2019s visual acuity remained relatively stable and her condition persisted strictly unilaterally. Cancer-associated retinopathy may be the first presenting sign of an underlying malignancy or may indicate its recurrence. Moreover, in patients with a diagnosed gynaecological malignancy, visual symptoms could reflect cancer-associated retinopathy. In our patient visual symptoms came secondary to the diagnosis of cancer.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0036933015598124","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,8,5]],"date-time":"2015-08-05T20:08:53Z","timestamp":1438805333000},"page":"155-159","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Unilateral cancer-associated retinopathy: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"61","author":[{"given":"Zartash","family":"Javaid","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"4th Year Medical Student, Cardiff University, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shahzaib M","family":"Rehan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"4th Year Medical Student, Cardiff University, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ayad","family":"Al-Bermani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Consultant Medical Ophthalmologist and Honorary Lecturer, Cardiff Eye Unit, University hospital of Wales, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gareth","family":"Payne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Consultant, Medical Physics Department, University Hospital of Wales, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,9,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.117.12.1641"},{"key":"bibr2-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/rg.304095745"},{"key":"bibr3-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0039-6257(02)00416-2"},{"key":"bibr4-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-2000-10511"},{"key":"bibr5-0036933015598124","first-page":"631929","volume":"2011","author":"Cybulska P","year":"2011","journal-title":"Case Rep Obstet Gynecol"},{"key":"bibr6-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1006\/gyno.1999.5342"},{"key":"bibr7-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1167\/iovs.13-11868"},{"key":"bibr8-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0161-6420(92)31806-8"},{"key":"bibr9-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajo.2013.09.019"},{"key":"bibr10-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.survophthal.2012.09.001"},{"key":"bibr11-0036933015598124","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archophthalmol.2009.24"}],"container-title":["Scottish Medical Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0036933015598124","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/0036933015598124","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0036933015598124","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,1]],"date-time":"2026-05-01T10:17:21Z","timestamp":1777630641000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0036933015598124"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016,8]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2016,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/0036933015598124"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/0036933015598124","relation":{},"ISSN":["0036-9330","2045-6441"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0036-9330","type":"print"},{"value":"2045-6441","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016,8]]}}}
