Descrição: The real-time B-mode echotomographies of 100 patients with transient visual symptoms have been reviewed and their findings have been compared with those of other 100 patients with transient ischemic attacks, who never had visual disturbances in their clinical history. The rate of pathologic echotomographies was higher in the group of patients with transient visual symptoms (72%), who also had a higher percentage (50% of the positive cases) of small or mild plaques without significant hemodynamic effects. The amaurosis fugax, particularly when associated with hemispheric ischemic symptoms, should suggest a carotid disease. The non-invasive exploration by real-time B-mode echotomography and Doppler with spectral analysis is the method of choice for the diagnosis of patients with transient visual symptoms.
