[Leber's XXXX : about two cases].

@entity1 @entity32 @entity227 @entity2926 @entity2479 @entity4 @entity683 @entity134 @entity1781 @entity941 @entity11102 @entity3252 @entity1019
BACKGROUND: Described by Theodore Leber in 1916, this syndrome is characterized by unilateral @entity227 , @entity4 and a stellate pattern of exudative deposits in the macula. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two young adults were examined for sudden unilateral @entity227 preceded by @entity683 . Fundus examination revealed a swollen @entity1781 and a macular star, visualized on @entity941 angiography. Visual field, laboratory tests and cranial and orbital tomodensitometry were performed. RESULTS: Visual field examination showed a centrocecal @entity1019 . Laboratory tests showed @entity32 in one case. Serology testing ( @entity2926 , @entity11102 , @entity3252 and syphilis, etc.) were negative. Tomodensitometry of the brain and orbits gave normal results. One of the @entity1 was treated with intravenous @entity134 boluses; the other received no treatment. A few weeks after the beginning of symptoms, the swelling of the @entity1781 seemed to have declined, leaving the macular star unchanged. CONCLUSION: These two cases typically describe Leber's @entity2479 . The prognosis for visual recovery is usually reported to be excellent, but visual sequelae have been described.
