    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    A new sign of endothelitis, transient black endothelial areas, was observed in a patient with acute anterior uveitis following dendritic keratitis. These areas resolved with antiviral and corticosteroid treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Corneal Diseases
    • Uveitis

    Background:

    • Acute anterior uveitis can occur after dendritic keratitis.
    • Corneal endothelial changes are a potential complication.

    Observation:

    • A 60-year-old male presented with acute anterior uveitis six weeks after epithelial dendritic ulcer healing.
    • Specular microscopy revealed transient non-reflecting black endothelial areas, a novel finding.

    Findings:

    • The black endothelial areas resolved within 3 days following treatment with topical trifluorothymidine and corticosteroids.
    • These findings suggest endothelitis was present concurrently with anterior uveitis.

    Implications:

    • The transient black endothelial areas may serve as a new diagnostic sign for endothelitis.
