Choroiditis Sympathetic

Choroidal papilloma (choroidopapilloma, Klippel-Trenaunay sign).

Choroidal papillioma is a benign formation in the cranial cavity, manifesting itself in the form of a tumor (benign) localized in the area of ​​the choroid. The etiology of the disease is unknown, the cause of the development of the neoplasm remains unknown. It has been established that in the vast majority of cases, papillomas are hereditary and, as a rule, develop in close blood relatives. They are found in both eyeballs in equal proportions, but in some cases papillomatosis can appear on only one side. Choroid papillomas usually exist throughout the patient’s life, without increasing in size or compressing the surrounding ocular structures. Symptoms of ocular papillomatosis are varied: there is pain in the eyeball, decreased visual acuity, the formation of growths in the eyes, nausea, vomiting. Papilloma can be recognized by examination results and specific laboratory tests. Choroidal papilloma is treated with surgery; in most cases, complete cure is not possible. The prognosis is also ambiguous, most often the condition stabilizes or worsens.

Sympathetic choroiditis** is a rare disease that is characterized by inflammation of the ethmoid retina. This pathology most often occurs in young women, since men suffer much less frequently. Symptomatic**choroiditis develops against the background of other infectious and viral pathologies. To prevent the risk of the disease, a person should undergo regular examinations and consult a doctor at the first symptoms.

Moreover, diseases such as Sjogren's syndrome, tuberculosis and syphilis can provoke choroidotrachoma. This disease is accompanied by blockage of retinal vessels with inflammatory exudate. Subsequently, there is a risk of retinal detachment, a serious disease that can lead to complete loss of vision. Sympathetic** forms of choroiditis can also occur against the background of eye injury. Retinal pigmentary abiotrophy and other diseases can cause complications in the form of sympathetic choroiditis. This disease may also be accompanied by rheumatoid arthritis and gout.
