To describe the prevalence and types of neurological disease that occur in association with uveitis.
Retrospective review of medical records of patients attending a tertiary referral uveitis service over a 15 year period.
Of 1450 patients with uveitis, 115 (7.9%) had neurological disease that was considered to be causally related to the eye inflammation. The most frequent neurological associations were Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease, primary central nervous system lymphoma, multiple sclerosis, and herpes virus infections.
Neurological disease is common among patients attending a uveitis service. The distinctive characteristics of the uveal inflammation may be useful in diagnosing the neurological disease.
描述与葡萄膜炎相关的神经系统疾病的患病率及类型。
回顾性分析在一家三级转诊葡萄膜炎诊疗机构就诊的患者15年期间的病历。
在1450例葡萄膜炎患者中,115例(7.9%)患有被认为与眼部炎症有因果关系的神经系统疾病。最常见的神经关联疾病是伏格特-小柳-原田病、原发性中枢神经系统淋巴瘤、多发性硬化症和疱疹病毒感染。
神经系统疾病在葡萄膜炎诊疗机构的患者中很常见。葡萄膜炎症的独特特征可能有助于诊断神经系统疾病。
