  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Eleven patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) developed cytomegalovirus retinitis. They were treated with intravenous ganciclovir. During the induction therapy, retinitis improved completely in 10 patients and partially in 3. In one patient who failed to respond to ganciclovir, intravenous foscarnet and ganciclovir resulted in partial resolution. Retinitis recurred in 3 of the 10 patients during the maintenance therapy, necessitating further reduction therapy. All cases developed leukopenia induced by ganciclovir. The treatment had to be discontinued in one patient resulting in extensive retinal involvements and optic atrophy. While intravenous ganciclovir appeared to be effective for cytomegalovirus retinitis in patients with AIDS, longterm maintenance therapy was necessary under careful hematological monitoring.
