An Entity of Type: disease, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Fuchs heterochromic iridocyclitis (FHI) is a chronic unilateral uveitis appearing with the triad of heterochromia, predisposition to cataract and glaucoma, and keratitic precipitates on the posterior corneal surface. Patients are often asymptomatic and the disease is often discovered through investigation of the cause of the heterochromia or cataract. Neovascularisation (growth of new abnormal vessels) is possible and any eye surgery, such as cataract surgery, can cause bleeding from the fragile vessels in the atrophic iris causing accumulation of blood in the anterior chamber of the eye, also known as hyphema.

  • Die Fuchs Heterochrome Iridozyklitis oder Fuchs-Syndrom-III bezeichnet einen Farbunterschied zwischen Iris des rechten und des linken Auges (Iris-Heterochromie) zusammen mit einer chronischen Entzündung der Iris des helleren Auges. Synonyme sind: Heterochrome Fuchs-Zyklitis; Heterochromiezyklitis; Heterochromia Fuchs; Fuchs'sches Uveitis-Syndrom Die Bezeichnung bezieht sich auf den Erstbeschrieb von 1904 durch Weill sodann 1906 durch den österreichischen Augenarzt Ernst Fuchs.

  • L’iridocyclite de Fuchs (en anglais, Fuchs heterochromic iridocyclitis ou FHI) est une pathologie de l’œil due à une inflammation discrète et chronique de l'iris (iritis) et/ou du corps ciliaire (cyclite). C'est une variété d'uvéite antérieure (choroïde épargnée), avec décoloration progressive de l'iris, émergence d'une cataracte et d'une hyalite (trouble du vitrée). Elle se distingue par l'absence de synéchies (fusions cicatricielles) . L'étiologie est incertaine, mais le virus de la rubéole est très fortement suspecté. (fr)
  • La ciclite eterocromica di Fuchs è una infiammazione oculare cronica (uveite) anteriore di natura idiopatica con modifica della colorazione dell'iride dell'occhio affetto. La malattia venne descritta per la prima volta dall'austriaco (1851-1930). (it)
