ICG angiography detects the birdshot lesions more readily than FFA and may be of benefit in assessing disease activity.doi:10.1038/eye.1997.142Howe, L JStanford, M RGraham, E MMarshall, JEyeHowe LJ, Stanford MR, Graham EM, Marshall J (1997) Choroidal abnormalities in birdshot chorioretino...
Purpose : Birdshot chorioretinopathy (BSCR) is a rare ocular HLA-related disease with variable clinical progression that may lead to visual loss. Our study examines the quality of life of BSCR individuals aged 80 years and above, providing insights into the long-term prognosis of the disease....
Birdshot retinochoroidopathy is a chronic posterior segment inflammatory disease with a characteristic clinical presentation and strong correlation with the HLA-A29 antigen.1,2 In this report, we describe the histopathological findings in the eye of a patient with this disease. Clinical presentation A...
Electroretinograms as an indicator of disease activity in birdshot retinochoroidopathy We tested the association of birdshot retinochoroidopathy and the HLA-A29 antigen. We could confirm a high association, as found by Nussenblatt et al. in 1... DN Zacks,MC Samson,LSC Foster - 《Graefes Ar...
The evidence suggests that it is a single disease entity rather than a group of disorders because of the remarkable similarity in the ophthalmological appearance and the clinical course, combined with the exceptionally high association with HLA A29.H...
Of these, 12 (92.3%) responded to the purified preparation, whereas one responded only to a crude retinal homogenate. The histopathologic and clinical findings in an eye from one of the responders to the S-antigen were similar to those in the disease induced in monkeys with the S-antigen. ...
