  • Title: Fluorescein angiography in syphilitic retinal vasculitis.
    Author: Savir H, Kurz O.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1976 Jun; 8(6):713-6. PubMed ID: 937954.
    Abstract:
    A case of ocular syphilis with severe ischemic retinopathy, rubeosis iridis and secondary glaucoma is described. Fluorescein angiography revealed a complete blockage of all the vessels around the macula, with dye leakage from numerous bifurcations of veins and an infiltrative mass in the macular area of both eyes. Combined treatment with steroids and penicillin brought no improvement in this condition of severe, ischemic ophthalmia.
