APMPPE should be considered among the causes of stroke and aseptic meningitis in young adults. The diagnosis is critically dependent on a thorough ophthalmologic examination. Severe neurological complications are difficult to predict at the onset of the ophthalmologic disease. The patients should be monitored closely. If investigations suggest cerebral vasculitis, immunosuppressive treatment may be helpful to prevent recurrences.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
