| solar urticaria | A form of urticaria resulting from exposure to specific light spectra; e.g., sunlight; some patients have passive-transfer antibodies and others do not. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| arteriosclerotic retinopathy | Retinopathy distinguished by attenuated retinal arterioles with increased tortuosity, copper-or silver-wire appearance, perivascular sheathing, irregularity of lumen and scattered small haemorrhages, and small, sharp-edged deposits without surrounding oedema. (05 Mar 2000) |
| background retinopathy | <ophthalmology, pathology> Early stage of diabetic retinopathy, it usually does not impair vision. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (09 Oct 1997) |
| macular retinopathy | Any pathological condition of the macula lutea. Synonym: macular retinopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| venous-stasis retinopathy | A uniocular retinopathy associated with occlusion of the central retinal vein; a nonischemic central retinal vein occlusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal retinopathy | Hypertensive retinopathy associated with chronic glomerulonephritis or nephrosclerosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central angiospastic retinopathy | Detachment of the sensory retina induced by decreased adhesion between cells of the retinal pigment epithelium which permits plasma from the choriocapillaris to enter subretinal space. Synonym: central angiospastic retinopathy, central serous retinopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central serous retinopathy | Detachment of the sensory retina induced by decreased adhesion between cells of the retinal pigment epithelium which permits plasma from the choriocapillaris to enter subretinal space. Synonym: central angiospastic retinopathy, central serous retinopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| retinopathy | 1. <ophthalmology> Retinitis: inflammation of the retina. 2. <disease> Retinosis: degenerative, noninflammatory condition of the retina. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (18 Nov 1997) |
| retinopathy of prematurity | <ophthalmology, paediatrics> A bilateral retinopathy occurring in premature infants treated with excessively high concentrations of oxygen, characterised by vascular dilatation, proliferation, and tortuosity, oedema, and retinal detachment, with ultimate conversion of the retina into a fibrous mass that can be seen as a dense retrolental membrane. Usually growth of the eye is arrested and may result in microophthalmia, and blindness may occur. (03 Jul 1999) |
| retinopathy punctata albescens | A disease in which both fundi show numerous white dots through the retina; causes night blindness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gravidic retinopathy | Sudden angiospasm of retinal arterioles, later followed by retinal vascular signs of advanced hypertensive retinopathy; vascular changes disappear rapidly after termination of the pregnancy. Synonym: eclamptic retinopathy, gravidic retinopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rubella retinopathy | Peripheral pigmentary retinal changes in congenital rubella, not affecting visual function. (05 Mar 2000) |
| circinate retinopathy | A retinal degeneration marked by a girdle of sharply defined white exudates around an edematous macula; usually bilateral and typically affects the aged. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pigmentary retinopathy | <ophthalmology> Disease caused by overactivity of the pigmented retinal epithelial cells, leading to damage and occlusion of photoreceptors and blindness. (18 Nov 1997) |
