Cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis in patients with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (NHL) can occur even in the presence of high CD 4 counts and can behave differently when compared to CMV retinitis in human immunodeficiency (HIV) patients. It, therefore, becomes important to understand its varied presentations and the challenges in management of these cases. The aim of this study was to analyse the various p...... hiện toàn bộ

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical ganciclovir 0.15 % gel in the management of patients with cytomegalovirus (CMV) anterior uveitis. This was a retrospective cohort study of the disease course of 31 patients (33 eyes) with aqueous polymerase chain reaction (PCR) positive for CMV. Data from a total of 160 episodes of anterior uveitis flare for 20 years, dating ...... hiện toàn bộ

The occurrence of a macular hole due to posterior uveitis is infrequently reported. We report the evolution of three cases of macular holes secondary to posterior segment inflammation. A complete inflammatory and infectious assessment found one case of toxocariasis, one of sarcoidosis, and one of syphilis. After medical etiological treatment, macular hole closure was rapidly obtained in all the ca...... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of molecular genetics in Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada diseaseJournal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection - Tập 4 - Trang 1-12 - 2014

Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is a systemic autoimmune disorder against melanocytes. Recent studies have identified multiple genetic factors that might be associated with the pathogenesis of VKH disease. We performed an electronic database search of PubMed, MEDLINE, and EMBASE, and all relevant papers published up to 13 June 2014 were reviewed. A total of 1,031 publications including articles...... hiện toàn bộ
A typical bilateral Toxoplasma retinochoroiditis in a bone marrow transplant patient with negative serum titersJournal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection - Tập 3 Số 1 - Trang 1-4 - 2013

Toxoplasma retinochoroiditis can have an atypical presentation and be difficult to diagnose in immunocompromised patients. Accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment is important since the disease can be aggressive in these patients. This paper is a case report with literature review, emphasizing on the diagnosis and treatment of Toxoplasma retinochoroiditis. A 27-year-old male with chronic myel...... hiện toàn bộ
Branch retinal vein occlusion in a case of recalcitrant diffuse anterior scleritis treated with tofacitinibJournal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection - Tập 13 - Trang 1-3 - 2023

The treatment of recurrent cystoid macular edema associated with acute retinal necrosis is challenging due to the concern that treatment with intravitreal steroids may reactivate the retinitis. An immunocompetent patient diagnosed with acute retinal necrosis was treated with oral valacyclovir and intravitreal injections of foscarnet. Giant tears in her retina necessitated a vitrectomy with silicon...... hiện toàn bộ
