Birdshot retinochoroidopathy is a bilateral, chronic posterior uveitis of likely autoimmune aetiology characterized by multiple depigmented choroidal lesions scattered throughout the post-equatorial retina. It has been managed with variable results using systemic immunosuppression. Herein, a case is described in which the patient, aware of the side-effects of systemic immunosuppression, refused this form of treatment and was successfully managed over a 3-year period with intravitreal triamcinolone. She developed the ocular complications of cataract and increased intraocular pressures, but maintained good vision while avoiding any systemic side-effects.
鸟枪弹样视网膜脉络膜病变是一种双侧性、慢性后葡萄膜炎,可能由自身免疫病因引起,其特征为多个色素脱失的脉络膜病变散在于赤道后视网膜。使用全身免疫抑制治疗的效果不一。在此描述一例,该患者知晓全身免疫抑制的副作用,拒绝这种治疗方式,在3年期间通过玻璃体内注射曲安奈德成功治疗。她出现了白内障和眼压升高的眼部并发症,但在避免任何全身副作用的同时保持了良好视力。
