Parinaud’s oculoglandular syndrome (POGS) is defined as unilateral granulomatous conjunctivitis and facial lymphadenopathy. The aims of the current study are to describe a case of POGS with uveitis due to flea-borne typhus (FBT) and to present a diagnostic and therapeutic approach to POGS. The patient, a 38-year old man, presented with persistent unilateral eye pain, fever, rash, preauricular and submandibular lymphadenopathy, and laboratory findings of FBT: hyponatremia, elevated transaminase and lactate dehydrogenase levels, thrombocytopenia, and hypoalbuminemia. His condition rapidly improved after starting doxycycline. Soon after hospitalization, he was diagnosed with uveitis, which responded to topical prednisolone. To derive a diagnostic and empiric therapeutic approach to POGS, we reviewed the cases of POGS from its various causes since 1976 to discern epidemiologic clues and determine successful diagnostic techniques and therapies; we found multiple cases due to cat scratch disease (CSD; due to Bartonella henselae) (twelve), tularemia (ten), sporotrichosis (three), Rickettsia conorii (three), R. typhi/felis (two), and herpes simplex virus (two) and single cases due to tuberculosis, paracoccidioidomycosis, Yersinia enterocolitica, Pasteurella multocida, Chlamydia trachomatis, Epstein–Barr virus, and Nocardia brasiliensis. Preauricular lymphadenopathy is a common clinical clue for POGS and is unusual in viral and bacterial conjunctivitis. For POGS, the major etiological consideration is B. henselae, which is usually diagnosed by the indirect immunofluorescence serologic technique. Although CSD POGS is usually self-limited, oral azithromycin may hasten resolution. However, other possible etiologies of POGS may also arise from cat or cat flea contact: sporotrichosis, tularemia, Pasteurella multocida, or FBT. If there is no cat contact, other epidemiologic and clinical findings should be sought, because several of these conditions, such as tularemia, paracoccidioidomycosis, and tuberculosis, may have grave systemic complications. Although there are usually no long-term ocular sequelae if POGS is properly diagnosed, it still may cause prolonged ocular discomfort and require multiple physician contacts.

“…Conjuntivites granulomatosas apresentam variedade enorme de diagnósticos diferenciais, incluindo causas oculares isoladas ou sistêmicas 3,4 . Não é incomum, portanto, representarem grande desafio aos médicos, até mesmo aos oftalmologistas, devido a ampla variedade de etiologias possíveis, que podem incluir desde patologias inflamatórias, alérgicas, neoplásicas ou infecciosas.…”

A Síndrome Oculoglandular de Parinaud (SOGP) é classicamente composta pela tríade: febre, conjuntivite folicular granulomatosa unilateral e linfadenopatia satélite préauricular ou submandibular ipsilateral e está relacionada a doença da arranhadura do gato, no entanto, mesmo que não comumente, pode ser causada pelo Sporothrix.sp. A situação se torna importante, sobretudo, devido à dificuldade no diagnóstico e por se tratar de zoonose. Principalmente nas áreas endêmicas e especialmente nas áreas hiperendêmicas, a esporotricose ocular, associada a SOGP, deve ser considerada como hipótese diagnóstica de doenças oftalmológicas externas, por isso descrevemos os achados clínicos e a sintomatologia de dez casos oriundos da região superendêmica do estado do Rio de Janeiro e chamamos a atenção para os novos casos que tem surgido na região Norte, especialmente em Manaus, possivelmente relacionados aos felinos. O reconhecimento precoce pode abreviar sobremaneira o tempo da doença e também a diminuição da cadeia de contaminação, desta forma, ao expormos os sintomas mais prevalentes, as características clínicas, as principais formas de contágio e o tratamento adequado, despertamos os profissionais da saúde da região norte e demonstramos, através do aprendizado com os casos da região sudeste estes casos que são de grande interesse devido à possibilidade de agravo de saúde pública.
