Purpose:
|
To evaluate the fluoresceine angiography and infrared autofluorescence finding in patients with confirmed Behcets disease (BD) but without clinical ocular signs
|
|
Methods:
|
In this prospective non-interventional case series, for all patients with confirmed BD but without ocular signs in clinical examination, montage fluorescein angiography (MFA) and infrared autofluorescence imaging was performed.
|
|
Results:
|
Fifty BD patients (100 eyes) without clinical ocular involvement were investigated. In MFA we found FA leakage in 22 cases (44%) in both eyes, mostly at the periphery of retina. In infrared autofluorescence profound changes was found in 43 patients, 86 eyes (86%). Twenty-five patients, 50 eyes (50%) presented with retinal vascular branching modifications, straightening, tortuosity and shunt.
|
|
Conclusion:
|
MFA of retina may be useful in patients with BD for early diagnosis, early treatment and follow-up of patients.
