Role of vitrectomy for syphilitic uveitis in a tertiary hospital in Spain
Diagnosis and treatment of ocular syphilis can be challenging due to the wide spectrum of clinical presentations of this sexually transmitted disease. In some cases of syphilitic panuveitis, pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) can be useful in management since it plays an important role in improving fundus examination allowing treatment of possible retinal associated lesions when vitreous inflammation is intense. We present 3 cases of patients with ocular syphilis that underwent a therapeutic PPV, vitreous sample was taken and analyzed in two of them.
