Аннотация
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Vitamin A deficiency, often presenting with nyctalopia, has been described in a number of patients with malabsorption as a result of intestinal bypass surgery and, more recently, bariatric surgery. In these reports vitamin A deficiency developed within several years of gastric or intestinal surgery. Three patients who developed decreased vision from vitamin A deficiency more than 18 years after their intestinal surgery are reported.
METHODS: A retrospective review of the clinical findings of all patients diagnosed with vitamin A deficiency, as confirmed by serological testing, over the past year in a single neuro-ophthalmic practice.
RESULTS: Four patients with vitamin A deficiency were seen, three of whom had intestinal surgery more than 18 years before the development of visual symptoms.
CONCLUSION: The authors suggest that vitamin A deficiency should be suspected in patients with unexplained decreased vision and a history of intestinal surgery, regardless of the timing of the surgical procedure.
