  • Title: Multifocal choroiditis with evidence of Lyme disease.
    Author: Bodine SR, Marino J, Camisa TJ, Salvate AJ.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1992 May; 24(5):169-73. PubMed ID: 1637125.
    Abstract:
    A 32-year-old man had multifocal choroiditis without vitreous involvement. The diagnosis of Lyme disease was suggested by serial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays of his serum and a cerebrospinal fluid specimen. The ocular findings resembled those seen in patients with acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy (APMPPE). The active lesions resolved after administration of a two-week course of intravenous ceftriaxone. This case suggests that some cases of APMPPE actually may be Lyme disease.
