Abstract
We present 4 patients (7 eyes) with Acute Retinal Necrosis Syndrome, 3 affected by AIDS and one otherwise healthy. In all inmunodepressed patients the affection was bilateral, in spite of treatment with Aciclovir, intravitreal Ganciclovir, Foscarnet and/or Prednisone, evolving towards total blindness. The outcome of the healthy patient affected eye was favorable. Photocoagulation with Argon Laser seemed to be useful in the. prevention of retinal detachment.
