Bussaca nodules (lie on the iris surface) which are pathognomonic for granulomatous uveitis. When the inflammation is treated, the nodules will resolve. Learn more about Bussaca Nodules.

Mutton-fat keratic precipitates (large and small) and/or iris nodules at pupillary margin (Koeppe) or in stroma (Busacca). Trabecular mesh work nodules and/or tent-shaped peripheral anterior synechia.

Iris nodules, particularly Koeppe and Busacca nodules, can be seen in FHI and may initially lead to a misdiagnosis of granulomatous uveitis. Iris crystals are small, refractile iris crystals called Russell bodies, which can be seen on the surface of the iris.

Busacca nodules, inflammatory nodules located on the surface of the iris in granulomatous forms of anterior uveitis such as Fuchs heterochromic iridocyclitis (FHI). [14] Synechia, adhesion of the iris to the cornea (anterior synechiae) or more commonly the lens (posterior synechiae)

Mutton-fat keratic precipitates (large and small) and/or iris nodules at pupillary margin (Koeppe) or in stroma (Busacca). Trabecular meshwork nodules and/or tent-shaped peripheral anterior synechia. Snowballs/string of pearls vitreous opacities.

When situated in the body of the iris stroma, iris nodules are called Bussaca nodules. Sectorial or widespread iris atrophy is a sign rather specific for herpes simplex or herpes zoster uveitis and is a useful diagnostic help.

2023年8月25日 · Busacca nodules are noted in the iris stroma, and the Koeppe nodules involve the pupillary margin. Berlin nodules are present at the angle of the anterior chamber. Hypopyon is usually not seen in sarcoidosis.

2023年2月21日 · Inflammatory nodules on the iris (Koeppe and Busacca) usually are tan in color and represent accumulations of inflammatory cells. Koeppe nodules are found at the pupillary border. Busacca nodules...

2015年1月15日 · In reference to ocular inflammation, “granulomatous” typically refers to a more severe form of uveitis, with distinctive features like iris granulomas, Koeppe nodules on the pupillary margin, Busacca nodules in the iris stroma and keratic precipitates (KPs) on the corneal endothelium that are large, globular and greasy, known as mutton-fat ...

In the chronic type of the disease, the granulomatous nodules of the iris and in the anterior chamber angle are sometimes seen (the so-called Koeppe and Busacca nodules).
