To describe restoration of retinal architecture following systemic immunosuppressive treatment in a patient with birdshot chorioretinopathy (BSCR).
Case report.
A patient with BSCR and vitritis, reduced electroretinographic responses, and a constricted visual field was treated with prednisone and mycophenolate mofetil.
Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) at baseline demonstrated a disruption of retinal architecture. After 4 months of treatment retinal architecture, as visualized on SD-OCT, was restored to normal.
Treatment of BSCR with systemic immunosuppression can result in restoration of disrupted retinal architecture. This structural improvement can be visualized and assessed using SD-OCT.
描述一位患鸟枪弹样脉络膜视网膜炎(BSCR)患者在接受全身免疫抑制治疗后视网膜结构的恢复情况。
病例报告。
对一位患有 BSCR 和葡萄膜炎、光感受器电反应降低以及视野受限的患者,给予泼尼松和霉酚酸酯治疗。
基线时的频域光学相干断层扫描(SD-OCT)显示视网膜结构中断。治疗 4 个月后,SD-OCT 显示视网膜结构恢复正常。
全身免疫抑制治疗 BSCR 可导致破坏的视网膜结构恢复。这种结构的改善可以使用 SD-OCT 进行观察和评估。
