  • Title: A 31-year-old man with bilateral blurry vision and floaters.
    Author: Abazari A, Kaplowitz K, Sibony P.
    Journal: Digit J Ophthalmol; 2015; 21(2):1-11. PubMed ID: 27330461.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of bilateral multifocal retinochoroiditis and bilateral optic disc edema in a patient with cat-scratch disease from Bartonella henselae. The patient initially had negative serologic testing. Repeat testing showed a markedly increased IgG and IgM convalescent titer and the development of a branch retinal artery and vein occlusion. In patients for whom there is a high clinical suspicion of cat-scratch disease, a convalescent titer should be obtained 2-3 weeks following a negative initial result.
