Q

(Anterior uveitis)

Que signifie uvéite antérieure?

A
  • Anterior uveitis primarily involves inflammation of the iris and ciliary body.
  • When the anterior chamber is the primary site where inflammation is observed, the term iritis may be used for this inflammation.
  • When inflammation is also observed in the anterior vitreous, the term iridocyclitis may be used.

Q

Présentation clinique de l’uvéite associated with oligoarthritic JIA and polyarticular JIA?

A
  • In contrast to most forms of anterior uveitis, the uveitis associated with oligoarthritic JIA and polyarticular JIA is initially asymptomatic.
  • It has been described as “white iritis” because of the absence of a red eye.
  • Screening for uveitis among children with JIA is therefore of great importance.

Q

(Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis)

Dans quelles situations le pronostic d’uvéite avec JIA est-il moins bon?

A
  • Occasionally, uveitis is diagnosed before or at the onset of joint symptoms; in these cases, unfortunately, the prognosis is often poorer because the initially asymptomatic nature of the ocular inflammation often delays diagnosis and thus treatment.
  • A shorter interval between the onset of arthritis and uveitis is also associated with a more aggressive course.

Frequency of Eye Examination in Patients with Polyarticular and Oligoarthritis? (Bref le tableau et le truc à Dr Kirouac)

A
  • The eye examination schedule for oligoarthritis and polyarticular JIA, as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
  • After 4 years, the eye examinations become less frequent.
  • Although female sex is associated with a higher incidence of uveitis, this factor is not incorporated in the guidelines.
  • Initial ophthalmologic examination should occur within 6 weeks of diagnosis.

Truc Dr Kirouac :

Every point means higher disease activity
ANA + = 1 pt
Age at onset < 6 yo = 1 pt
Duration of disease < 4 y = 2 pts, 4-7 y = 1 pt

4 pts = q3 months
3 pts = q6 months
1-2 pts = qyear

90
Q

(Toxocariasis Uveitis)

V ou F : un elevated Toxocara titers permet de r/o le rétinoblastome en Ddx de la Toxocariasis Uveitis

Faux.
Because elevated Toxocara titers may be found in a significant percentage of children, a positive result on tests such as the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay does not rule out other possibilities, including retinoblastoma.

143
Q

(Tx of Pediatric Uveitis : Surgical Tx of Complications of Uveitis)

Complications de la cataract surgery for patients with uveitis

A

Cataract surgery for patients with uveitis can be complicated by hypotony, glaucoma, synechiae formation, cystoid macular edema, and retinal detachment.

In patients with JIA, combined lensectomy and vitrectomy seems to produce better results than cataract extraction alone.

Uveitis must be aggressively treated so that it is under control both before and after surgery.

Intraocular lens implantation is debated.
