Scope note: Grupo de síndromes de uveítis posterior multifocal idiopática que afectan a la COROIDES, al EPITELIO PIGMENTADO DE LA RETINA y a la RETINA. Se caracterizan por lesiones múltiples de puntos hipoautofluorescentes en el FONDO DE OJO y disminución de la AGUDEZA VISUAL. Varias entidades como la CORIORRETINOPATÍA EN PERDIGONADA presentan el serotipo A29 de los ANTÍGENOS HLA-A.

Scope note: A group of idiopathic multifocal posterior uveitis syndromes involving the CHOROID; RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIUM; and RETINA. They are characterized by multiple lesions of hypoautofluorescent dots in the FUNDUS OCULI and reduced VISUAL ACUITY. Several entities including BIRDSHOT CHORIORETINOPATHY are HLA-A ANTIGENS serotype A29 positive.
