Abstract

To investigate the sexuality, age, mean frequency of attack, and accompanying eye examination findings in patients diagnosed with pars planitis. Materials and Methods: From 1998 to the 2006, 19 patients with pars planitis in S.B. Ankara Ulucanlar Eye Hospital Uvea Clinic were involved in this retrospective study. A complete ophthalmological examination, including visual acuity, applanation tonometry, and slit lamp examination after dilatation of the pupils, was evaluated at the beginning and during the follow-up period. Results: Two women (10.52%) and 17 men (89.47%) were available for follow-up evaluation. The average age of patients was 24.05 years (12-59 years). Mean follow-up period was 5.13 years (1-9 years). Thirty eyes of 19 patients were involved. Eight patients (42.11%) had unilateral involvement and 11 (57.8%) had bilateral involvement. Medical therapy was performed in 28 eyes (93.3%). Surgical therapy in addition to medical therapy was performed in 2 eyes (6.6%). The anterior segment complications after the therapy were cataract in 9 eyes (30%), keratic precipitates in 3 eyes (10%), posterior synechiae in 3 eyes (10%), and posterior capsular opacification in 2 eyes (6.6%). The posterior segment complications after the therapy were vitreous condensation in 23 eyes (76.6%), cystoid macular edema in 7 eyes (23.3%), optic atrophy in 3 eyes (10%), and tractional retinal detachment in 2 eyes (6.6%). Conclusion: The visual prognosis was related to visual acuity at the beginning of inflammation in cases of pars planitis. Cataract is the most common anterior segment complication and cystoid macular edema is the most common posterior segment complication in pars planitis.

Özet

Pars planit tanısı alan olguların cinsiyet, yaş, atak sıklığı ve eşlik eden göz muayene bulgularını incelemek. Gereç ve Yöntem: 1998-2006 yılları arasında S.B. Ankara Ulucanlar Göz Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesinde pars pla- nit tanısı alan ve üvea kliniğinde takip altına alınan 19 olgu retrospektif olarak incelendi. Olguların başlangıç ve takip muayenelerinde görme değerleri, göz içi basıncı değerle- ri, biyomikroskopi bulguları ve pupil dilatasyonu sonrası göz dibi muayenesini içeren tüm göz muayene bulguları değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Takip edilen olguların 2’si kadın (%10,52), 17’si er- kekti (%89.47). Olguların ortalama yaşı 24.05±14.78 yıl (12-59 yıl) idi. Takip süreleri ise ortalama 5.13±2.02 yıl (1-9 yıl) idi. Toplam on dokuz olgunun 30 gözü tutulmuştu. Sekiz olguda (%42.1) tek taraflı, 11 olguda (%57.8) iki ta- raflı göz tutulumu mevcuttu. Yirmi sekiz göze (%93.3) me- dikal tedavi, 2 göze ise (%6.6) ilaveten cerrahi tedavi uy- gulandı. Tedavi sonrası ön segment komplikasyonu olarak 9 gözde (%30) katarakt, 3 gözde (%10) sekel keratik pre- sipitat, 3 gözde (%10) arka sineşi ve 2 gözde (%6.6) arka kapsül opasifikasyonu belirlendi. Arka segment komplikas- yonu olarak ise 23 gözde (%76.6) vitreus kondansasyonu, 7 gözde (%23.3) kistik maküla ödemi, 3 gözde (%10) optik atrofi ve 2 gözde (%6.6) traksiyonel retina dekolmanı sap- tandı. Sonuç: Pars planitli olgularda iltihabın başlangıcındaki görme düzeyi görme prognozu ile ilişkilidir. En sık görülen ön seg- ment komplikasyonu olarak katarakt, arka segment komp- likasyonu olarak kistik maküla ödemi gözlenmektedir.
