    Description
    Uveitis syndrome is a rare posterior uveitis that usually begins as a multifocal choroiditis and then progresses to subretinal fibrosis. Recurrences are not uncommon and the visual prognosis is generally poor. In this enucleation specimen, a thickened choroid is clearly observed (arrow). The retina is detached and a fibrovascular subretinal membrane is present (arrowhead).
