Morphologic Characteristics of Choroid in the Major Choroidal Thickening Diseases, Studied by Optical Coherence Tomography

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
We investigated morphologic features of choroid in the choroidal thickening diseases, including central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC), polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease (VKH), by a novel tomographic classification

Morphometry of choroid plexus epithelial cells in neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropathology
The choroid plexus not only secretes the majority of cerebrospinal fluid but also controls the circadian rhythm, which can be impaired in the presence of neurodegenerative diseases.

Transport across the choroid plexus epithelium

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology, 2017
The choroid plexus epithelium is a secretory epithelium par excellence. However, this is perhaps not the most prominent reason for the massive interest in this modest-sized tissue residing inside the brain ventricles. Most likely, the dominant reason for

Functional and genetic analysis of choroid plexus development in zebrafish

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
The choroid plexus, an epithelial-based structure localized in the brain ventricle, is the major component of the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier. The choroid plexus produces the cerebrospinal fluid and regulates the components of the cerebrospinal ...

Evaluation of retinal and choroidal microcirculation in Behçet’s disease

Eye, 2022
To investigate retinal perfusion by optical coherence tomography (OCT)-angiography and choroidal vascular features using an OCT-based image binarization method in patients with Behçet's disease (BD) without clinical ocular involvement.This study included 38 patients with non-ocular BD and 35 healthy participants.

Thyroid eye disease with choroidal folds

Orbit, 2020
Purpose: To determine the clinical course of patients with chorioretinal folds (CRF) in thyroid eye disease (TED).Methods: A multi-center retrospective case series of patients with TED who developed CRF.Results: Ten patients (17 eyes) with CRF related to TED were identified. The mean age of presentation was 59.3 ± 8.3 years old.

Choroidal Involvement in Erdheim-Chester Disease

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2015
Erdheim-Chester disease is a rare infiltrative disorder of non-Langerhans cell histiocytes, which affects multiple organs, including bone, heart, lungs, orbits, central nervous system (CNS), pituitary gland, and retroperitoneum. Bone affliction is almost universal in these patients and, to a lesser degree, the CNS, retroperitoneum, and other tissues ...

Pediatric genetic macular and choroidal diseases

Journal of Pediatric Genetics, 2015
Genetic diseases of the macula and choroid have various inheritance patterns and varying degrees of impact on vision. Herein, we review the literature including most recent advances in the understanding of the genetics of these diseases. Although many of these disorders have limited treatment options, knowledge of inheritance patterns can aid in early ...

DISEASES OF THE CHOROID

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1939
Before the diseases of the choroid are reviewed, a few salient facts regarding the anatomic structure and the function of the choroid will be briefly mentioned. The choroid lies between the retina and the sclera and extends from the optic disk to the ora serrata. It has a thickness of 0.3 mm.

Exploring choroidal angioarchitecture in health and disease using choroidal vascularity index

Progress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2020
The choroid is one of the most vascularized structures of the human body and plays an irreplaceable role in nourishing photoreceptors. As such, choroidal dysfunction is implicated in a multitude of ocular diseases. Studying the choroid can lead to a better understanding of disease pathogenesis, progression and discovery of novel management strategies ...
