Abstract
We present a case of serous retinal detachment (SRD) and acute zonal occult outer retinopathy (AZOOR) in a 25-year-old postpartum woman with preeclampsia. She complained of visual disturbance on day 1 post-partum. Fundus examination revealed SRD in both eyes. Optical coherence tomography showed attenuation of the photoreceptor inner segment/outer segment line in both eyes. The coexistence of SRD and AZOOR in a puerperal woman is extremely rare. This present case highlights the importance for clinicians to be aware of the diagnosis of concomitant SRD and AZOOR.
