The authors report a case of macular involvement in a patient with HTLV-I associated myelopathy (HAM). The patient was a 10-year-old girl who noticed sudden decreased vision in her right eye in November 1987. The corrected visual acuity was 0.01 in the right eye and 1.0 in the left eye. Fundus examination of the right eye disclosed mild optic disc pallor. The macula appeared to have pigmentary mottling with superficial irregular retinal reflex that was three disc diameters in size. Fluorescein angiography revealed a discoid hypofluorescent area in the macula, surrounded by mottled hyperfluorescent areas. She had no contributory family history of ocular disease, but had a history of blood transfusion during an operation for patent ductus arteriosus and ventricular septal defect at the age of 8 months. In November 1990, she developed gait disturbance due to spastic paraparesis and was admitted to our hospital. Antibodies to HTLV-I were markedly elevated in serum (titer, 1:8192) and in cerebrospinal fluid (titer, 1: 1024). She was diagnosed as HAM. Two months later, she developed encephalopathy and bilateral optic disc atrophy.
