Background Inflammation of retinal vessels is a known association systemic tuberculosis. Patients with vasculitis are subjected to extensive but unrewarding workup. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) now commonly used detect DNA infective organisms including Mycobacterium This study was undertaken characterize the clinical characteristics PCR-positive tubercular vasculitis, so as determine presentation, associated features, management, and course this form vasculitis. Methods The records 13...
Purpose: To report epidemiology of uveitis in a tertiary-care referral institute North India.Methods: Hospital records patients with between June 2011 and September 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Results: Of the 1912 patients, 56.64% males. Anterior (43.04%) was most common manifestation followed by posterior (24.58%), panuveitis (16.21%), intermediate (10.66%). Specific etiologies could be ascertained 60.56%. Tuberculosis (22.9%) infectious HLA-B27-associated (9.46%) among...
To report the pattern of pediatric uveitis in a tertiary care referral center North India.In retrospective study, records cases presenting at our between 1996 and 2015 were reviewed for demographic data, anatomic distribution, diagnosis.Out 9600 patients with uveitis, 369 children (3.84%; age ≤16 years; males: 54.20%) included study. Anterior was commonest presentation (n = 158; 42.81%), followed by posterior 102; 27.64%). Uveitis bilateral 57.18% 211). Infective etiology seen 99 children,...
Background Truenat MTB Plus assay was evaluated for diagnosing ocular tuberculosis (OTB) and detecting multi-drug resistant (MDR) extremely-drug (XDR) OTB.Methods A total of 75 vitreous fluid specimens [five confirmed OTB, 40 clinically suspected OTB 30 controls] were subjected to Plus, multiplex PCR, Xpert Ultra. Chips used rifampicin, isoniazid, fluoroquinolone bedaquiline resistance. The performance compared against culture, composite reference standard, gene sequencing.Results overall...
To present a unique case of recurrent panuveitis in young patient associated with novel pathogenic variant the PIK3CD gene, expanding clinical spectrum Activated PIK3 delta syndrome (APDS), primary immunodeficiency that predisposes individuals to infections, autoimmunity, and malignancies. We evaluated 15-year-old boy refractory panuveitis, lymphadenopathy Hodgkin lymphoma. Ophthalmic assessment ultra-wide field fundus fluorescein angiography were conducted. Whole exome sequencing identified...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep-breathing disorder. OSA becoming highly prevalent, which means that to detect and prevent various hazardous complications, it imperative there are easy yet accurate techniques available identify people with OSA. The objective was compare two questionnaires: STOP-BANG score the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), used screen patients suspected of Polysomnography (PSG), gold standard investigation, diagnose Sixty-five individuals were recruited as...
To compare dye-assisted epiretinal membrane (ERM) peeling using a standard operating microscope (SOM) with without staining either microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography (Mi-OCT) or three-dimensional heads-up display (3D-HUD) platform. A prospective, randomized, and interventional pilot study. Patients requiring surgical intervention for ERM were randomized into group (Mi-OCT), B (3D-HUD), where dye was not used, C (dye-assisted SOM). Primary outcomes included the percentage of...
Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of 532 nm frequency-doubled Nd-YAG green laser for treatment retinopathy prematurity (ROP). Methods: This retrospective interventional case series included infants undergoing ROP with between January 2012 March 2017 at a single tertiary-care referral center. Review clinical records was done to identify baseline characteristics, procedural difficulties, complications related procedure outcome ≥ 1 year follow-up. Results: There are about 347 eyes...
<h3>Aims</h3> To study a hybrid pattern of retinopathy prematurity (ROP) demonstrating both ridge tissue (simulating staged ROP) and flat neovascularisation aggressive posterior (APROP)) in the same eye. <h3>Methods</h3> Retrospective chart review from January 2006 to June 2010. We reviewed retinal drawings Retcam images for ROP, that is, presence (characteristic along with neovascular syncytium APROP) <h3>Results</h3> 28 eyes 18 infants had characteristics. All severe plus disease, new...
We report unfavorable outcome in a patient with subretinal granuloma caused by dual infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex fortuitum and bovis an immunosuppressed, non-HIV patient. did systematic review literature on due to M. via MEDLINE PUBMED could not find any case reported causing this kind the eye.A 38-year-old Indian male presented decreased vision left eye for 3 months, diagnosed as tubercular choroidal associated retinal angiomatosis proliferans (RAP) lesion. He also had...
Idiopathic retinal vasculitis, aneurysms, and neuroretinitis (IRVAN) syndrome presents with characteristic clinical manifestations such as aneurysms at arteriolar bifurcations optic nerve vascular inflammation. Regression of features on treatment anti-tubercular therapy (ATT) combined corticosteroids has not been reported in literature.A 30-year-old female sudden painless decreased vision the left eye was referred a diagnosis presumed tuberculous vasculitis positive tuberculin skin test....
To report the outcome of microincision vitreous surgery (MIVS) in uveitis.In total, 103 patients (106 eyes) underwent diagnostic MIVS between March 2012 and April 2015. Postoperative evaluation included haze grading from clinical/electronic records, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), complications.Mean age was 36.8 ± 13.9 years (range: 8-80 years). Mean follow-up after 12.2 7.2 months (median 12 months). 2.39 0.98 (preoperatively), 0.36 0.73 postoperatively (1 week), 0.02 0.2 at 1 month (p...
