Sumario:This report describes the optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) findings detected at the choriocapillaris slab before the clinical picture of acute toxoplasmosis choroiretinitis (TCR) by following up a patient with serial images of OCT and OCTA from the quiescent to the active stage of the disease. In this case, the increased thickness of the choroid in the OCT B-scan and the prominent flow void at the choriocapillaris slab of the OCTA were detected early in the course of the disease. OCTA is a useful imaging technique in TCR and might help in predicting the TCR lesion at the subclinical stage.
