Roth Spots: A Rare Finding in Sickle Cell Anemia

White-centered, flame-shaped retinal hemorrhages, also known as Roth spots, occur in several diseases, most often in subacute bacterial endocarditis. Other conditions such as leukemia, hypertensive retinopathy, and pre-eclampsia are other causes. Here, we present the case of a 32-year-old female with sickle cell anemia (HbSS) who was treated at the hospital after experiencing a sickle cell crisis. Fundus examination was performed to rule out sickle cell retinopathies, suggesting the presence of Roth spots in the retina which are rarely seen in sickle cell disease.
