Abstract：
Severe sickle retinopathy is commonly known in adults but not in children, hence any related treatment for sickle retinopathy in children was not well described. We reported 2 paediatric sickle patients (aged 12 and 13) presented with severe sickle retinopathy and described details of their disease progression and treatments over 2-3 years, along with the challenges faced when managing this particular group of young age sickle cell patients. Our case reports also demonstrated the benefits of laser photocoagulation treatment to early sickle proliferative disease, and how complications from advanced severe retinopathy hindered effective treatments.
摘要：
严重的镰状视网膜病变在成人中很常见，但在儿童中却不常见。因此,儿童镰状视网膜病变的相关治疗方法没有得到很好的描述.我们报告了2名儿童镰状患者（12岁和13岁）出现严重镰状视网膜病变，并描述了他们2-3年的疾病进展和治疗细节。以及在管理这一组年轻的镰状细胞患者时面临的挑战。我们的病例报告还证明了激光光凝治疗对早期镰刀增生性疾病的益处。以及晚期严重视网膜病变的并发症如何阻碍了有效的治疗。
