摘要

一名62岁女性病患因左眼视力逐渐丧失、飞蚊症及失光而被评估。左眼底检查显示玻璃体细胞、色素减退病变和视网膜血管炎，检查显示HLA-A29血清学阳性，所有这些结果与鸟射性脉络膜视网膜病变一致。患者口服强的松和霉酚酸酯治疗，使其葡萄膜炎得到充分控制。尽管单侧病例非常罕见，不符合既定的研究标准，但本病例强调了不低估鸟状病变在单侧多灶性脉络膜视网膜炎患者鉴别中的重要性。

Atypical Unilateral Birdshot Chorioretinitis in a Hispanic Female.

A 62-year-old female patient was evaluated for gradual vision loss, floaters, and photopsia in her left eye. A left fundus examination revealed vitreous cells, hypopigmented lesions, and retinal vasculitis, and a workup revealed a positive HLA-A29 serology, all of which findings were consistent with birdshot chorioretinopathy. The patient was treated with oral prednisone and mycophenolate mofetil, which resulted in the adequate control of her uveitis. Even though unilateral cases are exceedingly rare and do not meet the established research criteria, this case highlights the importance of not minimizing the significance of birdshot lesions in the differential of patients with unilateral multifocal chorioretinitis.
