[Presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome].
Presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome is a macular hemorrhagic choroiditis of the young adult. The etiology of this syndrome is uncertain, but can be correlated with some positive reactions to histoplasmosis. The study was carried out on 12 patients, each of them was investigated by functional and objective ocular examinations, laboratory tests, fluorescein angiography and ultrasound examinations. The clinical signs of this syndrome of presumed ocular histoplasmosis were: macular focal lesions, subretinian hemorrhages, detachment of the retinal neurosensorial layer, presence of disseminated choroiditis scars and subretinian neovascularization. The correct evaluation of the choriocapillary perfusion is helpful to institute a proper therapy.
