Đặc điểm và nguyên nhân gây bệnh viêm màng bồ đào tại Bệnh viện Đại học Y Hà Nội

Abstract

Uveitis is a major cause of visual impairment with diverse clinical manifestations and etiologies. This study aimed to describe the clinical characteristics and causes of uveitis in patients at Hanoi Medical University Hospital. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 90 patients diagnosed with uveitis at the Department of Ophthalmology during 2023 – 2024. Uveitis was most common in the working-age group (82.2%) and in females (60.4%). Bilateral involvement accounted for 61.1% of cases. Panuveitis was the most common anatomical type (35.6%), followed by anterior uveitis (32.2%). Blurred vision was the most frequent symptom (84.6%), while ocular pain, red eye, and floaters were reported in 49.5%, 38.5%, and 16.5% of patients, respectively. 48.9% of patents were diagnosed with Idiopathic uveitis. Among infectious causes, Toxocara-associated uveitis was the most common, whereas Vogt–Koyanagi–Harada syndrome was the leading noninfectious etiology. Comprehensive evaluation of clinical manifestations and etiologies is important for accurate diagnosis, early treatment, prevention of complications, and preservation of visual function.
