Imagerie multimodale dans la rétinite ponctuée externe toxoplasmique: à propos d’un cas
Punctuate Outer Retinal Toxoplasmosis (PORT) is a rare variant of toxoplasma chorioretinitis. We report the case of a 21-year-old patient presenting with visual blur of the left eye (LE). The examination found a corrected visual acuity (VA) at 3/10(th), a quit anterior segment and a 1+ vitreous haze...

description | Punctuate Outer Retinal Toxoplasmosis (PORT) is a rare variant of toxoplasma chorioretinitis. We report the case of a 21-year-old patient presenting with visual blur of the left eye (LE). The examination found a corrected visual acuity (VA) at 3/10(th), a quit anterior segment and a 1+ vitreous haze. Fundus examination showed a suprafoveolar yellowish-white lesions associated to multiple peripheral atrophic and pigmented ones. Visual acuity of the right eye was 10/10(th) with a calm anterior segment. Fundus examination depicted an upper temporal cicatricial pigmented lesion. Multimodal imaging of LE objectified a PORT. The patient received antibiotic and corticosteroids with favorable clinical and functional outcome. Final VA reached 10/10 at day ten. This case illustrates the importance of multimodal imaging in the differentiation of PORT from the white dots syndrome and other unilateral retinitis. |
