Sclerochoroidal Calcification

Sclerochoroidal Calcification

“…18 Sclerochoroidal calcification is generally considered to be predominantly bilateral. 4 In our series of 27 patients, 16 (59%) had unilateral calcification and 11 (41%) had bilateral calcification. The patients were older (median age, 70 years) and white.…”

Bilateral Adie’s Tonic Pupil and Hyperopic Shift in Idiopathic Sclerochoroidal Calcification

“…1 Ultrasonography showed echodense placoid lesions at the scleral-choroidal interface with acoustic orbital shadowing, also characteristic of calcification seen in sclerochoroidal calcification. 2 Although choroidal osteoma can present similarly, the patient's age, race, bilateral presentation, and fundus appearence were all more consistent with the diagnosis of sclerochoroidal calcification.…”

Idiopathic Sclerochoroidal Calcification

“…One of the most important diagnostic tests is B-scan ultrasonography, which reveals an echogenic plaque with orbital shadowing at the level of the sclera and choroid. 1,4,8,13,17 This can be confirmed with A-scan ultrasonography, which exhibits an elevated spike at the site of the lesion with low amplitude echoes posteriorly. 1,4,17 Similar to B-scan ultrasonography, orbital computed tomography also shows a high density plaque-like lesion, similar to calcium or bone, at the level of the sclera and choroid.…”
