[Ocular complications of AIDS. Diagnostic problems].
Presentation is made of the ocular complications of AIDS which were observed in the ophthalmologic clinic of the University Hospital in Zurich from 1986 to 1991. Besides cotton-wool spots, CMV-retinitis is the most frequent and best known infectious complication. In all other infections, diagnosis is most difficult, because it could never be supported by histological examination. Presentation is made of some cases of acute retinal necrosis, toxoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, candida, and of some cases of uveitis with unknown etiology. Furthermore we present one intraocular non-Hodgkin lymphoma, some suspicions of Kaposi's sarcoma and some neurologic disturbances of central origin.
