Kyrieleis Plaques. Kyrieleis plaques are segmental periarteriolar inflammatory plaques that occur in various diseases such as toxoplasma retinochoroiditis, cytomegalovirus retinitis, and Susac syndrome. In other words, it is an ocular sign that can be found in many diseases. It is not a single disease. Images: Idiopathic Kyrieleis Plaques with. Kyrieleis plaques represent a rare fundus examination finding, first described in an eye with presumed tuberculous uveitis by the German ophthalmologist Werner Kyrieleis, in 1933[1]. They appear as multiple, segmental, and focal yellowish-white lesions, affecting retinal arterial branches in a beaded pattern[2-4] Kyrieleis plaques have been found in the setting of toxoplasmosis, tuberculosis, syphilis, rickettsial disease, herpes zoster virus, intraocular lymphoma, and idiopathic branch retinal artery occlusions. The differential diagnosis for these periarterial plaques should also include herpes simplex vir Introduction. Kyrieleis plaques, also referred to as segmental retinal periarteritis, were first described in an eye with presumed tuberculous uveitis by Kyrieleis1 in 1933. Griffin and Bodian2 later used the term segmental retinal periarteritis to describe these changes, which appear as focal or segmental yellowish-white accumulations around retinal arteries, typically near or adjacent to an. The right eye showed inferior and temporal retinal thinning and pigmentation and periarterial whitish focal Kyrieleis' plaques, specifically along arterioles. Left eye had mild vitritis, optic disc pallor, arteriolar attenuation, with retinal whitening and areas of pigmentation involving 360° of peripheral retina along with some involvement of.

Eponymous Dishonor: Kyrieleis Plaques Kyrieleis plaques were initially described in an eye with tuberculous uveitis by Kyrieleis in 1933. 1 The term segmental periarteritis was used later to describe these whitish segmented deposits found within retinal arteries. 2 Kyrieleis plaques have also been associated with infections of the retina due to toxoplasma, syphilis and.
Kyrieleis plaques describe nodular peri-arteritis or a beaded pattern of vascular inflammation. These plaques are predominately associated with toxoplasmosis infections but were originally reported in association with ocular tuberculosis in 1933.[5] It may be less commonly seen with syphilis, tuberculosis, cytomegalovirus, herpes zoster, and. Kyrieleis plaques can be differentiated from vascular sheathing and frosted branch angiitis by its clinical and fluorescein angiographic features. Kyrieleis plaques affect only the retinal arteries in contrast to frosted branch angiitis that involves both the retinal arteries and veins. In addition, Kyrieleis plaques ar
Hyper-reflectivity of the arterial wall can be seen in the area of the Kyrieleis plaques. In the immunocompetent individual, toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis typically resolves over a period of 1 to 2 months. Given the benign natural history and the potential toxicity of antiparasitic medication, treatment of all comers with active infection would. The right eye showed inferior and temporal retinal thinning and pigmentation and periarterial whitish focal Kyrieleis' plaques, specifically along arterioles. Left eye had mild vitritis, optic disc pallor, arteriolar attenuation, with retinal whitening and areas of pigmentation involving 360° of peripheral retina along with some involvement. The specialist described the arteriolar involvement as Kyrieleis plaques, which are a source of retinal vasculitis associated with ARN, tuberculosis, syphilis toxoplasmosis and Mediterranean spotted fever. Serology tests for these pathologies were run and subsequently found to be negative OCT, after 4 months of therapy with aciclovir: retinal necrosis, Kyrieleis' plaques within the arteries. Discussion: Acute Retinal Necrosis Syndrome in CMV retinitis is typical for immuno-compromised patients. Bonfioli et al. (1) summarize d, that acute retinal necrosis (ARN) is an uncommon intraocular inflammatory syndrome characterized by. Retinal vasculitis is used as a descriptive term to explain a conglomerate of typical clinical manifestations including perivascular sheathing or cuffing, vascular leakage and/or occlusion. It may be associated with signs of retinal ischemia, including cotton-wool spots and intra-retinal hemorrhage
Acute retinal necrosis (ARN) is an inflammatory condition which may present as panuveitis. The principal causative viral agents have been found to be Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) as well as Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2) via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing of intraocular fluid Results Kyrieleis plaques involving the retinal arteries were noted on presentation and increased during the first 6 weeks of treatment as the retinitis faded. The plaques on fluorescein angiography did not leak fluorescein dye and slowly faded over 5 months. Conclusions Kyrieleis plaques can be seen in the setting of CMV retinitis Ocular syphilis can present in many ways,1 especially in patients infected with HIV. The protean posterior segment manifestations include necrotising retinitis, retinal vascular occlusion, chorioretinitis, neuroretinitis and exudative retinal detachment.2 Nodular periarteritis, or Kyrieleis plaques, are a well-recognised finding in patients with toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis,3 but have only. Kyrieleis' periarteriolar plaque may be seen in ARN. Evaluation. Acute retinal necrosis is a clinical diagnosis and treatment should not be delayed in a typical case. The classical triad of ARN.
504 ARCHIVES OF OPHTHALMOLOGY the microscopic appearance of the lesions. He established the fact that they are circumscribed plaques of hyaline degeneration. Kyrieleis 8 in 1939 discussed the condition as circumscribed scleromalacic patches, although he recognized the fact that they are of senile degenerative origin. A general description of these plaques as observed by myself and. Figure 7. Montage photo of recurrent toxoplasma infection with Kyrieleis' vascular plaques throughout the fundus. Anne E. Fung, MD, is a medical retina specialist and David Heiden, MD, is a uveitis specialist with Pacific Eye Associates. Sarah Huggans is a certified photographer and Denice Barsness is the director of ophthalmic imaging with the. The vascular findings included variable combinations of focal or elongated segmental sheathing and discontinuity of small and large retinal arteries, sclerotic arteries, regions of vascular nonperfusion, cotton-wool spots, Kyrieleis plaques, irregular venous caliber with dilated and sclerotic segments, perivenular hemorrhages and foci of phlebitis

The plaques are not visible angiographically and do not alter dye transit or cause permeability changes Kyrieleis' arteriolitis have been only rarely reported in patients with ARN.1 Kyrieleis' plaques have been postulated to be due to calcific deposits in the arterial walls or migration of exudates from active choroiditis to the periarterial sheaths, with compartmentalisation of the exudates due to anatomical variations.1 ARN should be. The OCT imaging of the Kyrieleis plaques showing that the plaque fully encloses the circumference of the artery has, to the best of our knowledge, never been published before. In cases where there is a very dense vitritis it can sometimes be difficult to differentiate viral ARN from toxoplasmosis but a hexagona
Description. One month following treatment with Bactrim, Clindamycin, and oral prednisone the focal area chorioretinitis has coalesced with a decrease in overlying vitreous inflammation. Kyrieleis plaques can be seen along the inferior retinal arteriole Kyrieleis plaques have been described in Rickettsia conorii infection [7, 8] by Khairallah M. and colleagues. We would like to know from the authors if they found such plaques in any of their cases. We have described a case of Kyrieleis plaques in acute retinal necrosis. All affected eyes showed IOI with variable combinations of focal or elongated segmental sheathing and discontinuity of small and large retinal arteries, sclerotic arteries, regions of vascular nonperfusion, cotton-wool spots, Kyrieleis plaques, irregular venous caliber with dilated and sclerotic segments, perivenular hemorrhages, and foci of.
