Posner-Schlossman Syndrome Bianka Sobolewska, MD Manfred Zierhut, MD Centre of Ophthalmology University of Tuebingen, Germany
OcularHistory • 49 yearoldhealthywhitewomen • 1999: OD • recurrentanterioruveitis • IOP upto 60 mmHg • noresponseto oral aciclovir
April 2010: First Presentation • VA: OD 20/63, OS 20/20 • IOP: OD 38 mmHg, OS 17 mmHg • OD: non-granulomatouscentral KPs, irispigmentdefect, anteriorchambercells 1+, posteriorsubcapsularcataract, theiridocorneal angle open with pigment • OS: regular • Fundus: • OD/OS: regular with physiologicexcavationoftheoptic nerve
non-granulomatouscentral KPs April 2010: First Presentation
First Presentation - Diagnostics • negative anteriorchamber fluid analysis(PCR) for • CMV • Epstein-Barr virus • herpessimplexvirus • varicellazostervirus • all othertests negative: serologyforsyphilis, borreliosisand Bartonella, Quantiferontest, ANA, ANCA, chest CT
Diagnosis • CMV- indducedanterioruveitis • based on: • Clinical findings with classical Posner-Schlossman Syndrome behaviourofintraocularpressure • Missingresponsetoacyclovir
Treatment • topicalantiglaucomatosa • prednisoloneeyedrops (3x/day) • systemicvalganciclovir • 3 weeks: 900 mg b.i.d. • followedby 450 mg b.i.d.
Follow up – After 1-6 MonthsMai-October 2010 • norecurrencesincethestartofvalganciclovirtherapy • VA: OD 20/1000 • IOP: OD 16-17 mmHg • onlytwoold KPs, nocells, posteriorsubcapsularcataract • therapy: • reductionoftopicaltherapy • systemicvalganciclovir 450 mg b.i.d • clearcornealphacoemulsification 11/2010
Follow up – After 7 MonthsOctober 2011 • OD: 20/20 • norecurrence • terminationofvalganciclovirtherapy
Follow up – After 11 MonthsMarch 2012 • recurrence with IOP of 40 mmHg, • anteriorchambercells 1+ • therapy • valganciclovir (450 mg 2x/day • topicalrimexolone (4x/day) • topicalganciclovir (5x/day) • acetacolamide (2x125 mg/day)
Follow-up – After 1-2 YearsApril 2012 – April 2013 • IOP 14-17 mmHg • norecurrence • reductionoftopicaltherapy • terminationof oral therapy in 04-2013
Follow-up – After 28 MonthsAugust 2013 • recurrence with IOP of 60 mmHg • acetacolamide 2x250 mg/day • starttherapy with leflunomide 20mg/d • topicaltherapy with • antiglaucomatosa, • prednisolone 3x/day • ganciclovir 3x/day
Follow-up – After 29 MonthsSeptember 2013 • twicerecurrenceswith IOP of 60 mmHg • stopofleflunomide (headache, nausea) • topicaltherapywith • antiglaucomatosa • prednisolone 3x/day • ganciclovir 3x/day
Follow-up – After 30- 42 MonthsOctober 2013-October 2014 • norecurrences • reductionoftopicaltherapy
Final Ocular Investigation – After 42 MonthsOctober 2014 • VA: 0.7 • anteriorchambernocells • opticdisc: physiologicalexcavation • notopicaltreatmentbesidesarteficialtears
Final Diagnosis • Possner-Schlossman Syndrome (PSS) • Differential diagnosis • Herpeticanterioruveitis (HSV, VZV) • Fuchs` uveitis
Problems • rare disease • oftenmisdiagnosed • negative AC tap (PCR) does not exclude PSS • uncleartreatmentregimenwhen AC tapis negative • recurrences after terminationofsystemicvalganciclovirtherapyoftenreported
Conclusion – CMV anterior Uveitis • Clinical signscanmimicother viral uveitisdisorders • When AC tapis negative but theclinicalsignsare suggestive for PSS, systemicacyclovirineffective: systemicvalganciclovirisrecommended • In caseofrecurrences, oral valganciclovirtherapywith additional topicalganciclovircanberepeated • In long-lasting undiagnosed PSS treatedonly with aciclovir, theresponsetovalgancilovirseems limited
