Gender Differences in Behçet’s Disease Associated Uveitis
Figure 2
A 30-year-old Jewish male presented with panuveitis, retinitis, and retinal vasculitis and was later diagnosed with Behçet’s disease. Right eye was legally blind with a visual acuity of 20/200 due to a macular retinitis in the past. Left eye visual acuity was 20/640 due to active macular retinitis. Fundus photos and fluorescein angiogram show macular scar (a) in the right eye and active macular retinitis in the left eye (b) with diffuse retinal vascular leakage in both eyes (involving both veins and arteries) and late staining of the retinitis in the left eye ((c) and (d)). Left eye visual acuity improved to 20/50 after treatment with infliximab with resolution of retinitis and retinal vasculitis ((e) and (f)).
