Resum

Objective To estimate the population frequency of uveitis complications and to evaluate their main risk factors in the patients with uveitis from the UveCAM study. Patients and methods Development of complications in 386 patients with uveitis in the whole health area of the province of Toledo (UveCAM study) during a period of one year. Description of complications and study of their possible determinants by means of multivariate regression models. Results Information on the development of complications was available in 371 of the 386 patients of the UveCAM study. 45.8% of patients had at least one complication, the most frequent were posterior synechiae (19.0%), ocular hypertension (14.0%), macular oedema (7.5%), epiretinal membrane (6.9%), glaucoma (6.6%), iridian atrophy (5.6%), and atrophy (5.6%) and cataracts (5.5%). The risk of complications increases with age, intermediate and panuveitis locations, and those of chronic or recurrent evolution. Conclusion Uveitis is associated with a high frequency of complications, especially in older patients, with intermediate or posterior localization of the inflammatory process, and chronic or recurrent evolution.
