“…Systemic disturbances, such as cerebral vasculitis, thyroiditis, erythema nodosum, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, enteritis, and sarcoidosis have been associated as well [3][4][5][6][7]. The association with HLA-B7 and HLA-DR2 has been reported by Wolf et al [8]. The polymorphism of APMPPE makes differential diagnosis between this disorder and related clinical entities rather difficult and is responsible for the tendency to classify this condition within the group of the so-called 'white dot syndromes', non-granulomatous choroiditis, which have certain clinical similarities and include serpiginous peripapillary choroiditis, acute retinal epithelitis, multiple evanescent white dot syndrome, and multifocal choroiditis (pseudo-POHS) [9].…”

“…They hypothesise that vitrectomy may be beneficial in this group of patients because it relieves traction and allows resolution of a shallow traction retinal detachment. Duguid et al 8 and Patel et al 7 have reported patients with a similar pattern on OCT without a clinically evident TTPH. The patient that we present has responded well to vitrectomy.…”

“…APMPPE can follow systemic triggers such as bacterial 3 or viral 1,4 infection, vaccination, 5 and use of antimicrobial agents, 6 suggesting an immune-mediated mechanism. An immunogenetic predisposition for developing APMPPE is supported by the association of HLA types B2 and DR7 7 . Abnormalities of choroidal blood flow, demonstrated by indocyanine green angiography, 8 suggest a choroidal vasculitis, and there are reports of associated systemic vasculitides.…”

“…Daher wird die APMPPE gegenwärtig als ein postinfektiö-ses Krankheitsbild angesehen, wobei es sich immunpathologisch um eine viral oder auch bakteriell induzierte Alterierung des Immunsystems handeln könnte mit postinfektiöser Reaktion im Bereich der choroidalen oder auch anderer nichtokulä-rer Gefäûe. Dieses möglicherweise autoimmune Geschehen scheint sich auf der Basis einer genetischen Prädisposition abzuspielen [28,44]. Wolf et al (1990) konnten das gehäufte Auftreten von HLA-B7 (APMPPE in 40 %; Kontrollgruppe in 17 %) und HLA-DR2 (APMPPE 57 %; Kontrollgruppe 28 %) nachweisen [44].…”

Nicht auszuschlieûen ist zudem, dass gegenwärtig mögli-cherweise mehrere, verschiedene Krankheitsbilder unter dem Begriff der APMPPE mit oder ohne systemische Beteiligung subsummiert werden.…”
