Large drusen following long-standing retinal detachment
Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2010 We report an interesting finding of multiple large drusen in an eviscerated eye with a longstanding retinal detachment. The origin and composition of the drusen is also speculated on the basis of special stains.

Increased retinal drusen in IgA glomerulonephritis are further evidence for complement activation in disease pathogenesis [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Drusen are retinal deposits comprising cell debris, immune material and complement that are characteristic of macular degeneration but also found in glomerulonephritis.

Parapapillary drusen of the retinal pigment epithelium [PDF]
Acta Ophthalmologica, 2023 AbstractPurposeTo describe the occurrence, morphology and associations of parapapillary drusen of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE‐drusen).MethodsUsing light microscopy, we histomorphometrically examined enucleated human eyes.ResultsThe study included 83 eyes (axial length: 25.9 ± 3.2 mm; range: 20.0–35.0 mm). Eyes with parapapillary RPE‐drusen (n =

Retinal drusen in glomerulonephritis with or without immune deposits suggest systemic complement activation in disease pathogenesis [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Retinal drusen are characteristic of macular degeneration and complement activation, but also occur in C3, lupus and IgA nephropathy. This cross-sectional observational study compared drusen counts in different forms of glomerulonephritis.

Retinal drusen counts are increased in inflammatory bowel disease, and with longer disease duration, more complications and associated IgA glomerulonephritis [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Retinal drusen are deposits of inflammatory proteins that are found in macular degeneration and glomerulonephritis and result, in part, from complement activation.

Drusen-like beneath retinal deposits in type II mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis: a review [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Oftalmologia, 2015 The aim of this paper is to do a review of Drusen-like beneath retinal deposits in type II mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis. Drusenlike beneath retinal deposits in type II mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis appear to develop at an early age, often ...

Large drusen in long-standing retinal detachment
Oman Journal of Ophthalmology, 2018 Drusen are seen as an end result of various biochemical insults to the retina and have been described in various clinical settings. We would like to report the histopathology of a case of large drusen, seen associated with chronic retinal detachment in a
