Bilateral Retinal Detachment Following Cytomegalovirus Retinitis

Cyclosporin a Treatment for Chronic Uveitis Associated With Retinitis

“…The following ocular manifestations have been reported in the adult form of CMV disease: retinitis, retinouveitis and retinal detachment following retinitis (de Venecia et al 1971;Fiala et al 1978;Chumbley et al 1965;Broughton et al 1978). Clinically the lesions of our patient resembled the CMV retinitis of renal transplant recipients.…”

Acquired Cytomegalovirus Retinitis

“…It was first described by Foerster [4] in 1959; subsequently 44 additional cases have been reported in the English litera ture . The characteristic ophthalmoscopic appear ance of CMV retinitis was first described by de Venecia et al [8] and has since been further discussed by others [17,22,27,30]. This appearance includes patchy and irregu lar perivascular sheathing, marked attenuation and nar rowing of vessels, adjacent focal white dots or granular patches bordering well-demarcated gray-white zones of retinal necrosis, and frequently many retinal hemor rhages between or superimposed on the focal white patches.…”

Treatment of cytomegalovirus retinitis with DHPG in a patient with AIDS

“…It is possible that retinal detachments in CMV retinitis, which are presumed to be exudative, may be caused by undetected retinal holes in areas of retinal necrosis (Broughton et al, 1978). In our patient areas of retinal thinning were present and the possibility of an undetected retinal hole seems likely.…”
