Uniocular vascular occlusion in a paraplegic hybrid monkey. A clinicopathologic study.

One eye of a hybrid monkey showed ophthalmoscopic, fluorescein angiographic, and electroretinographic evidence of ophthalmic artery occlusive disease. Histopathologic examination of that eye revealed widespread atrophy of the choroid, retina and optic nerve. An associated paraplegia was presumed to be the result of vascular occlusive disease as well.
