“…Guthoff (1988) discussed a presumed idiopathic case, and, more recently, DiBernardo et al (1998) presented a nanophthalmic case. So far, the series of publications from biennial ophthalmic ultrasound conferences (SIDUO) has consisted mainly of case reports (Falco et al 1988;' Schutterman 1988;' Cennamo et al 1995;' Fukiyama et al 1995). The last two listed above gave clear examples of two-layered detachment patterns, but without showing obvious eyewall thickening.…”

ABSTRACT.Purpose: To establish the diagnostic role of imaging by ultrasound for the diagnosis of uveal effusion syndrome. Methods: Using ultrasonic imaging features as the main criteria for evaluation, the recorded data from 16 patients with presumed uveal effusion seen between 1994 and 2000 were reviewed and analysed for clinical manifestations and current diagnostic suggestions. Eventually, as cumulating experience suggested that ultrasound is capable of indicating uveal effusion, the study set-up became in part more prospective. Results: The two main ultrasonic features found were: (1) extended multi-layered detachment patterns by B-scan, often kinetically mobile; (2) a spongy oedematous ciliary body region, often with interstitial lacunae, as demonstrated by high-resolution ultrasound biomicroscopy (50 Mhz). Conclusions: In patients with visual loss and ambiguous detachment-like fundus pathology, ultrasonic features are often of practical guidance for diagnosing uveal effusion syndrome.
