Estudio De Las Zoonosis Parasitarias De Localización Ocular en El Instituto De Oftalmología (Ino) (Periodo 1985-1999).

Abstract: The objective of the present study was to determine the frequency of parasitic zoonosis with ocular localization, diagnosed in the Institute of Ophthalmology (INO), which belongs to the Ministry ofHealth (MINSA) in Lima-Peru, between 1985 to 1999. The analysis of 4,843 histopathology records submitted to the Laboratory of Ocular Pathology between the years 1985 and 1999, showed that 0.47 ± 0.002% (23/4,843) corresponded to parasitic zoonosis; where the suggestive lesions of leishmaniosis, toxocaríosis andocula… Show more

En el estudio, se describen las características clínicas y epidemiológicas de los pacientes catalogados con diagnóstico de toxoplasmosis ocular activa, así como la Se valoró el efecto Tyndall según el número de células en humor acuoso observadas al iluminar la cámara anterior con un haz de luz de máxima intensidad de 1 x 1 mm a un ángulo de 45° según la siguiente escala: 1+ (5-10), 2+ (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20), 3+ (21-50) y 4+ más de 50.…”
