[Susac syndrome, review and clinical case].
Susac syndrome (SS) is an extremely rare neurological disorder characterized by symptoms of a clinical triad: encephalopathy, retinopathy and hearing loss. These problems arise from the microangiopathy of blood vessels that supply blood to the brain, the retina and the cochlea. SS is more common in young women. The authors present a literature review on the diagnosis and treatment of SS and the clinical observation of patients with classic signs of the disease triad.
