Resumen

Objetivo: Evaluar la prevalencia de uveítis en pacientes con sífilis y toxoplasmosis atendidos en Araguaína, Tocantins, entre 2020 y 2023.

Metodología: Estudio epidemiológico descriptivo, transversal y retrospectivo, basado en el análisis de historias clínicas de pacientes con sífilis y toxoplasmosis atendidos en el Hospital Universitario y notificados a las autoridades de vigilancia epidemiológica. Se analizaron las siguientes variables: grupo de edad; sexo; raza; origen; diagnóstico de toxoplasmosis o sífilis; agudeza visual; comorbilidades asociadas; y complicaciones oculares desarrolladas.

Resultados: Se observó una prevalencia de uveítis del 12% en pacientes con las enfermedades mencionadas, siendo el 80% casos de toxoplasmosis y el 20% de sífilis. Además, se evidenció coinfección por el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH) en el 48% de los individuos, siendo el edema macular la principal complicación de estos casos de uveítis infecciosa.

Conclusión: En este sentido, existe una prevalencia notablemente alta de uveítis en pacientes con enfermedades infecciosas, que se presenta predominantemente en aquellos con toxoplasmosis.
