Abstract EN
Purpose.
To describe patients with new onset sarcoid uveitis occurring after an ophthalmic procedure and compare them with patients with sarcoid uveitis without ocular procedure.
Methods.
Retrospective analysis of case records from patients with postophthalmic procedure sarcoid uveitis seen at our institution between April 2004 and October 2016.
Patients with a previous history of uveitis were not included.
Each patient was randomly matched with four controls from our incident cohort of new onset sarcoid uveitis without ophthalmic procedure.
Results.
We identified 11 patients (8.5%) from our incident cohort of sarcoid uveitis (n=130), who were all women, with a postophthalmic procedure uveitis (mostly after cataract surgery (36%)).
These patients were older (69.7 vs 52.7 years) and presented more synechiae than controls.
After a mean follow-up of 30 (3–60) months, there was no significant difference between the postprocedure and the control group with regard to demography, clinical presentation, disease course, treatment, and outcome.
Conclusions.
Sarcoid uveitis has similar characteristics in patients with new onset sarcoid uveitis after or without ophthalmic procedure.
As a consequence, ophthalmic intervention should be seen as a potential trigger of latent sarcoidosis.
