NIH Rare Diseases:43 Susac syndrome is an autoimmune condition that affects very fine blood vessels in the brain, retina, and the cochlea (inner ear) .  it is characterized by three main symptoms: encephalopathy (which can include headache, mild memory losses, personality changes, and confusion); sensorineural hearing loss; and vision loss. most people do not have all the symptoms of susac syndrome at the beginning of their illness but develop symptoms over the course of several years. susac syndrome affects women more than men and the age of onset is usually between 20 and 40 years.  the cause of this condition is still unknown. corticosteroids, antiplatelets, anticoagulation, and cyclophosphamide have been frequently used to treat susac syndrome. however, the extent to which individuals respond to treatment is not clear. improvement may occur spontaneously although in some cases there may be residual dysfunction. last updated: 7/7/2011

MalaCards: Susac Syndrome, also known as retinocochleocerebral vasculopathy, is related to central retinal artery occlusion and cauda equina syndrome. An important gene associated with Susac Syndrome is F5 (coagulation factor V (proaccelerin, labile factor)). Affiliated tissues include spinal cord, brain and retina.
