Unusual panuveitis in a child: toxocariasis associated with ocular myiasis.

André Marques1, António Rodrigues1, Silvana Belo2, Marta Esteves Guedes3.   

Abstract

Most panuveitis in children are caused by infectious agents. A detailed clinical history and clinical examination are helpful in the diagnosis, but specific techniques are sometimes required to identify the causing specimen. We report the first published case of panuveitis in a child caused by simultaneous ocular infection by Toxocara canis and a fly larva and the innovative use of immunodiffusion technique in the vitreous for the diagnosis. 2014 BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.
