Objective. To describe the diverse patterns observed with the use of autofluorescence fundus photography (FAF) in patients with Birdshot chorioretinopathy (BSCR). Methods. A chart review of patients with BSCR seen at the Massachusetts Eye Research and Surgery Institution, who had autofluorescence fundus photography. The data obtained included age, gender, presence of the HLA-A29 haplotype, and ...

PURPOSE Birdshot retinochoroidopathy (BSRC) is a rare posterior uveitis characterized by distinctive, multiple, hypopigmented choroidal and retinal lesions. Most, if not all, patients are white and share the major histocompatibility antigen HLA-A29. Furthermore, the A*2902 subtype is closely associated with BSRC, and only a very few patients share the A*2901 subtype. Surprisingly, although A*29...

Using Discrete Gradient Methods (Quispel & Turner, J. Phys. A29 (1996) L341-L349) we construct integration methods that solve ordinary differential equations numerically while preserving all their first integrals (i.e. constants of the motion) exactly. 1 Department of Mathematics, La Trobe University, Bundoora, Melbourne, 3083, Australia. 2 E-mail: [email protected] 3 Instituut voor Theo...

A29 year old woman, who was an intermittent contact lens wearer, is referred from her local ophthalmologist with a diagnosis of microbial keratitis. There is a large central corneal ulcer with stromal white cell recruitment and low grade anterior chamber (AC) activity. The patient has no other eye problems and is in good health. Would you perform a corneal scraping? Which antibiotics would you ...

Birdshot retinochoroidopathy is a rare inflammatory eye disease with typical clinical presentation and strong association with the HLA-A29 allele. Characteristic appearances on fluorescein angiogram (FA), indocyanine green (ICG) angiography, and electroretinogram (ERG) have been described. However, histopathology of the disease has been rare. 3 The following case is an example of birdshot retin...
