Resumen

Propósito
Describir los patrones de distribución y las características clínicas de los pacientes diagnosticados con uveítis en un centro especializado en uveítis en Bogotá, Colombia, entre 2013 y 2021 y comparar estos patrones con los reportados previamente entre 1996 y 2006.

Métodos
Se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo de corte transversal revisando sistemáticamente las historias clínicas de los pacientes atendidos entre 2013 y 2021. Los datos fueron analizados y comparados con reportes previos.

Resultados
De los 489 pacientes con uveítis, 310 eran mujeres (63,4%). La edad media de inicio fue de 38,7 años, con un rango entre 1 y 83 años. Los tipos de uveítis más frecuentes en nuestra muestra poblacional fueron bilateral (52,8%), anterior (45,8%), no granulomatosa (90,8%) y recurrente (47,6%). La causa más común de uveítis en este estudio fue la idiopática, seguida por la toxoplasmosis y la uveítis asociada a HLA-B27 +, lo que difiere del estudio colombiano previo en el que la toxoplasmosis ocular fue la causa más frecuente. Esto resalta un cambio significativo de etiologías infecciosas a procesos más inmunomediados como causa de uveítis en Colombia en la actualidad.

abstract = "PURPOSE: To describe the distribution patterns and clinical characteristics of patients diagnosed with uveitis at a specialized uveitis center in Bogot{\'a}, Colombia, from 2013 to 2021 and compare these patterns with the previously reported between 1996 and 2006.METHODS: We performed an observational descriptive cross-sectional study systematically reviewing clinical records of patients attending between 2013 and 2021. Data were analyzed and compared with previous reports.RESULTS: Of the 489 patients with uveitis, 310 were females (63.4\%). The mean age of onset was 38.7, with a range between 1 and 83 years. Bilateral (52.8\%), anterior (45.8\%), non-granulomatous (90.8\%), and recurrent (47.6\%) were the most common types of uveitis found in our population sample. The most common cause of uveitis in this study was idiopathic, followed by toxoplasmosis and HLA-B27 + associated uveitis, which differs from the previous Colombian study where ocular toxoplasmosis was the most frequent cause. This highlights a significant shift from infectious etiologies to more immune-mediated processes as the cause of uveitis in Colombia nowadays.CONCLUSION: The results of this study provide a comparison between the clinical patterns of presentation of uveitis from 1996 to 2006 and the patterns observed from 2013 to 2021, enhancing awareness about the changing dynamics of uveitis in Colombia to guide a better understanding of the diagnosis, classification, and correlation with other systemic conditions of the disease.",
