ACQUIRED VITELLIFORM LESIONS THAT RESPOND TO IMMUNE SUPPRESSION IN A PATIENT WITH SARCOIDOSIS
1Department of Ophthalmology, Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, Illinois.
Purpose:
To describe a patient with sarcoid uveitis who developed bilateral vitelliform lesions with subretinal fluid that responded to immune suppression on three occasions.
Methods:
Chart review was performed on a single patient to collect all relevant clinical information and diagnostic imaging.
Results:
A case of sarcoidosis with acquired vitelliform lesions is described.
Conclusion:
Patients with ocular sarcoidosis can rarely develop vitelliform lesions. Our patient responded to systemic immune suppression.
