Zusammenfassung

Wir berichten über eine 77-jährige Patientin, bei der aufgrund länger bestehenden Schwindels zum Ausschluss einer intrakraniellen Raumforderung eine Magnetresonanztomographie des Schädels durchgeführt wurde. Die Untersuchung zeigte eine intraokulare hyperintense Struktur am linken Auge. Zum Ausschluss eines intraokularen Tumors wurde die Patientin in unserer Augenklinik vorgestellt. In der ophthalmologischen Untersuchung konnte die intraokulare Struktur in Zusammenschau mit der Anamnese als Residuen von Perfluordecalinbläschen entlarvt werden.

Abstract

We present the case of a 77-year-old female patient who complained of dizziness. Consequently, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination was performed to rule out an intracranial tumor. The examination revealed an intraocular structure with signal hyperintensity in the left eye. The patient was referred to our clinic to screen for an intraocular tumor. Ophthalmological findings together with the medical history unmasked the “tumor” as residual perfluorodecaline vesicles.
