Idiopathic retinal vasculitis aneurysms and neuroretinitis (IRVAN) is the acronym used to describe a rare syndrome characterised by a peripheral retinal vascular occlusion secondary to a retinal vasculitis with multiple posterior retinal arterial aneurysms (Fig. 88.1). In 1995, Chang et al. [3] proposed “IRVAN”, describing ten cases with these features. This disorder is also known as “bilateral neuroretinopathy with multiple retinal arterial aneurysms”.

Abstract
Idiopathic retinal vasculitis aneurysms and neuroretinitis (IRVAN) is the acronym used to describe a rare syndrome characterised by a peripheral retinal vascular occlusion secondary to a retinal vasculitis with multiple posterior retinal arterial aneurysms (Fig. 88.1). In 1995, Chang et al. [3] proposed “IRVAN”, describing ten cases with these features. This disorder is also known as “bilateral neuroretinopathy with multiple retinal arterial aneurysms”.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
