HIV和梅毒合并感染背景下的双侧前葡萄膜炎

阅读:1

Abstract

This case report presents bilateral anterior uveitis (BAU) in a 26-year-old male concurrently infected with HIV and syphilis, highlighting a rare and complex clinical presentation. BAU, typically linked with systemic diseases, poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges when co-occurring with such infections. Despite common associations with posterior uveitis in co-infected individuals, this patient displayed BAU, underscoring the variability in ocular manifestations. The case details the clinical progression, diagnosis, and management strategies, emphasizing the need for comprehensive ophthalmologic and systemic evaluation. The report aims to enhance awareness and understanding of the implications of concurrent HIV and syphilis infections in ocular inflammation, advocating for tailored treatment approaches and a high index of suspicion in similar presentations.
