  • Title: Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy in Buerger's disease.
    Author: Coppeto JR, Adamczyk D.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1988 Sep; 20(9):332-4. PubMed ID: 3190111.
    Abstract:
    A 77-year-old man with a history of Buerger's disease developed an anterior ischemic optic neuropathy. This disease, while rare in the United States at the present time, is common in other parts of the world. None the less, this appears to be the first reported case of this type of optic neuropathy in a patient with documented Buerger's disease. A possible mechanism is suggested.
