| Summary: |
Central retinal vein occlusion is associated with systemic
conditions, such as arterial hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, but also with
certain hypercoagulability states (thrombophilia). Growing evidence indicates, that the
presence of antiphospholipid antibodies and elevated plasma homocysteine levels predispose
to central retinal vein occlusion. In younger patients, factor V Leiden (Arg506Gln) could
increase the risk of this disease. Other probable causes of thrombophilia related to
retinal vein occlusion include increased levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 and
lipoprotein (a), which impair fibrinolysis. |
