Simultaneous bilateral inflammatory choroidal neovascularization in a case of healed serpiginous-like choroiditis

GMS Ophthalmology Cases, 2022
Objective: Inflammatory choroidal neovascularization (i-CNV) is an infrequent but sight-threatening complication of posterior uveitis. Although it can occur in a wide range of infectious and non-infectious uveitides, presence of simultaneous bilateral i ...

Clinical manifestations of dual‐gene variants in retinitis pigmentosa

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal disease (IRD), whereby each affected individual typically harbours pathogenic variants in a single causative gene, yet the disorder exhibits marked genetic heterogeneity, with more than 100 genes reported to underlie RP.

Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Geographic atrophy (GA) is the chronic loss of retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors and choriocapillaris, marking the dry late stage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). GA prevalence is expected to rise in the upcoming decades. Advanced GA leads to central scotomas, reducing visual acuity and quality of life, potentially resulting

Rac1 overexpression promotes Treg-derived cytokines to mediate choroidal neovascularization in wet age-related macular degeneration [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), particularly the wet form characterized by choroidal neovascularization, is a leading cause of vision loss. Dysregulation of regulatory T cells (Tregs), key modulators of inflammatory responses, may contribute to ...

Choroidal caverns in pachychoroid neovasculopathy

Acta Biomedica Scientifica, 2021
Background. Choroid plays an important role in the pathogenesis of retinal pathology. Choroidal cavern, a recently identifi ed fi nding of optical coherent tomography (OCT), has been described in some degenerative and atrophic forms of retinal pathology.

Macular telangiectasia type 2 genetic risk variants associated with clinical characteristics in the Slovenian cohort

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Early diagnosis of macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel) remains challenging, and the contribution of genetic variation to its clinical heterogeneity is unclear. This study investigated associations between MacTel risk variants and clinical characteristics in a Slovenian cohort.
