CHOROIDAL INFILTRATION IN ERDHEIM–CHESTER DISEASE: A CASE SERIES

Erdheim-Chester disease is a rare multisystem disorder that can present with ocular involvement, including orbital masses, xanthelasma-like lesions, and, occasionally, choroidal infiltrates. Early recognition and prompt treatment can lead to improvement of ophthalmic and systemic symptoms and prevent further complications. We recommend treating patients with choroidal ECD, regardless of the presence of symptoms, considering these patients are at increased risk of developing choroidal neovascularization.

Abstract

Erdheim-Chester disease is a rare multisystem disorder that can present with ocular involvement, including orbital masses, xanthelasma-like lesions, and, occasionally, choroidal infiltrates. Early recognition and prompt treatment can lead to improvement of ophthalmic and systemic symptoms and prevent further complications. We recommend treating patients with choroidal ECD, regardless of the presence of symptoms, considering these patients are at increased risk of developing choroidal neovascularization.
