Our purpose was to detect the rate of initial manifestation of sarcoidosis in the eye.
We conducted a retrospective chart review in a sarcoidosis clinic in Germany. Ophthalmological data were obtained by using a standardized protocol, including the medical history, any comorbidity, onset and type of ocular manifestation that was evaluated by slit lamp, tonometry and fundoscopy.
In the cohort of 1,800 patients (mean age 38.1 ± 11.8 years), diagnosis of sarcoidosis was established most commonly by bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy (96.2%), histopathology (46.9%) or other organ manifestations. The initial clinical presentation of sarcoidosis (mean age 34.1 ± 10.8 years) had often been eye manifestation (21.2%). Within this group, anterior uveitis was most common (76.4%), followed by intermediate (17.3%) and posterior uveitis (4.7%).
The eye is commonly the first site for manifestation of sarcoidosis. Ophthalmologists have a critical role in establishing the diagnosis of sarcoidosis.
本研究旨在检测眼部结节病的首发表现率。
我们在德国的一家结节病诊所进行了一项回顾性图表审查。通过使用标准化方案获取眼科数据,包括病史、任何合并症、眼部表现的发病和类型,这些表现通过裂隙灯、眼压和眼底镜进行评估。
在 1800 例患者(平均年龄 38.1±11.8 岁)的队列中,结节病的诊断最常通过双侧肺门淋巴结肿大(96.2%)、组织病理学(46.9%)或其他器官表现来确定。结节病的首发临床表现(平均年龄 34.1±10.8 岁)常为眼部表现(21.2%)。在该组中,前葡萄膜炎最常见(76.4%),其次是中间葡萄膜炎(17.3%)和后葡萄膜炎(4.7%)。
眼部是结节病首发的常见部位。眼科医生在诊断结节病方面具有关键作用。
