Intraocular tuberculosis.

P H Rosen1, D J Spalton, E M Graham.   

Abstract

Twelve patients with a diagnosis of intraocular tuberculosis are described. Nine patients presented with florid ischaemic retinal vasculitis and a marked tendency to neovascularisation. Two patients developed choroidal tubercles; iris nodules were observed in association with anterior uveitis in the remaining patient. The methods of diagnosis, management and possible mechanisms of pathogenesis of these different clinical presentations are discussed.
