  • Title: [Specific chorioretinitis--a case report].
    Author: Feuermannová A, Rencová E.
    Journal: Cesk Slov Oftalmol; 2005 Jul; 61(4):253-9. PubMed ID: 16164093.
    Abstract:
    The authors present an uncommon case of ocular involvement in extrapulmonary form of tuberculosis with cutaneous manifestation. A case of a patient who was treated for skin efflorescences on legs for several months is demonstrated. The eye examination showed the picture of chorioretinitis of suspicious tuberculous etiology. A prompt healing of cutaneous lesions occurred and retinal finding stabilized under the specific therapy. The authors emphasize that this infectious etiology should not be omitted in differential diagnostic considerations of uveitis.
