AN ATYPICAL EARLY-ONSET X-LINKED RETINOSCHISIS MIMICKING UVEITIS MASQUERADE SYNDROME
Author
Affilliation
Abstract
Uveitis masquerade syndromes (UMSs) include systemic and ocular pathologies manifesting with intraocular infiltrating cells, but these are not due to immune-mediated or infectious uveitis entities. Generally, UMS can be divided into neoplastic and non-neoplastic UMS. Hematologic malignancies and retinoblastoma represent examples of malignant conditions. In contrast, non-malignant disorders, such as retinitis pigmentosa and retinal detachment, can be considered UMS. Hereby we report a case of atypical early-onset X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) mimicking UMS.
