Sumario:Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is an invasive endoscopic procedure done more often for therapeutic rather than diagnostic purposes. There are various complications of this procedure like pancreatitis, cholangitis, hemorrhage, perforation and other rare adverse events. In this case report, we discuss a case of a 40 years female who was referred to our center for endoscopic retrograde cholangiography. After the procedure she complained of bilateral loss of vision which was an unknown complication to us. But after looking back to literature we found two such case reports attributed to isolated bilateral lateral geniculate body infarct.
