Abstract
Case report

A twenty-three-year-old woman was diagnosed of a morning glory papillary anomaly, then with normal visual acuity (VA). Nine years later, the VA decreased to 0.4, secondary to a serous macular detachment, confirmed by optical coherence tomography (OCT). After treatment with C2F6 gas injection, positioning, and peripapillary laser, the VA improved to 0.7 and the foveolar area reattached.

Discussion

The Morning Glory syndrome usually has an early diagnosis due to poor visual acuity. Thirty-eight percent of the cases have retinal detachment. We show an unusual case of Morning Glory syndrome with a serous detachment, successfully treated with gas and laser.

Resumen
Caso clínico

Mujer de 23 años con anomalía papilar de morning glory con agudeza visual (AV) de 1. Nueve años después presenta disminución de AV (0,4) por desprendimiento seroso macular confirmado por tomografía de coherencia óptica (OCT). Tratado con inyección de gas intraocular C2F6, posicionamiento y láser, conseguimos la desaparición del líquido subretiniano y una AV final de 0,7.

Discusión

El síndrome de morning glory suele diagnosticarse precozmente debido a la mala AV. Un 38% de los casos presentan desprendimiento de retina. Mostramos un caso inusual de síndrome de morning glory con desprendimiento seroso tratado con éxito mediante gas y láser.
