During retrospective and prospective studies, we attempted to determine the clinical characteristics, treatment, and visual outcome of @entity1 with @entity2038 and to evaluate the association between @entity2038 and @entity15 ( @entity15 ). The retrospective study included 44 @entity1 with @entity2038 , who had been examined between October 1986 and January 1999. We analyzed age, sex, visual acuity (VA), median follow-up time, and medical and surgical treatments. The prospective study, which included 21 consecutive @entity1 with @entity2038 , was performed to determine the presence of @entity15 . In the retrospective study, the mean @entity1 age was 22.4 years (SD +/- 11.5) and the median follow-up was 34.9 months (SD +/- 27.2). Complications included macular @entity4 (47.7%), vitreous opacities (38.6%), @entity1829 (38.6%), @entity1333 (36.4%), and @entity231 (20.5%). Forty @entity1 (90.9%) had a final bilateral VA better than 20/40. In the prospective study, @entity2996 ( @entity2996 ) was performed. @entity17 were found in 10 (47.6%) of the 21 @entity1 and relapsing-remitting clinically definite @entity15 was diagnosed in seven (33.3%). With the exception of age, no significantly statistical differences were observed when the visual prognosis and the clinical and epidemiologic characteristics were compared between the two groups of @entity1 with and without associated @entity15 ; a diagnosis of @entity15 was more frequently made in @entity1 over 25 years of age. With appropriate treatment, @entity1 with @entity2038 have a good visual prognosis. Because the presence of @entity17 seems to be high among @entity1 with @entity2038 , @entity2996 should be considered, especially in @entity1 over 25 years of age.
