Abstract:
The term “Primary Ocular Tuberculosis” used when tubercular lesions are present only in eye without any systemic involvement. Although rare but cases of isolated ocular tuberculosis exist in literature The most common manifestation is the inflammation of the uveal tract due to high blood supply. In the studies reporting higher incidence rates, the diagnosis of TB uveitis was often based on a positive tuberculin skin test [TST].

Abstract:
Multifocal choroiditis is a rare affection of unknown etiology, and tuberculosis is one of its numerous causes. Our study highlights the need to look for tuberculosis in case of multifocal choroiditis, even without clinical history or signs suggestive of pulmonary tuberculosis. We present the case of an immunocompetent patient with isolated multifocal choroiditis, which strongly suggests tuberculosis. The positive diagnosis was made based on the positivity of the QuantiFERON-TB® Gold immunoassay, given the low sensitivity and specificity of conventional diagnostic methods. Further tests reveal

Abstract:
Introduction: Episcleritis is an acute inflammation of the vascular connective tissue between the conjunctiva and the sclera’s surface, which can be found unilateral and bilateral. Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the systemic infectious diseases that cause morbidity in developing countries and can affect the ocular area known as ocular tuberculosis There are still limited cases of ocular tuberculosis studies, specifically tubercular nodular episcleritis in adolescents. This case report aims to expose nodular episcleritis in pediatric tuberculosis patients in Indonesia. Case Presentation: A 16-year

Abstract:
Background: The definitive diagnosing of ocular tuberculosis (TB) is difficult; therefore, there is a need of better understanding of investigating TB DNA in presumed ocular TB patients. Objectives: The aim of this study is to correlate tubercular DNA PCR of aqueous/vitreous and blood in cases of presumed ocular TB. Design: A prospective study. Methods: DNA was extracted from aqueous of cases of choroidal tuberculoma (group 1) and serpiginous choroiditis (group 2) and from vitreous of cases of vasculitis (group 3) and macular hole/retinal detachment (group 4).

Correlating ophthalmic and systemic findings, a presumptive diagnosis of left eye exudative retinal detachment with choroidal tuberculoma and tubercular osteomyelitis of the right wrist was made. On imaging, asymptomatic multiorgan involvement was observed in the chest, abdomen and spine. The pat

Background/Aim. Vasculitis is a clinical, pathologic process characterized by inflammation and necrosis of blood vessel occurring anywhere in the body. The aim of the study was to present some clinical and immunologic features of retinal vasculitis in systemic diseases: systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, sarcoidosis, Behcet's diseases, and others. Methods. A total of 1 254 patients with uveitis were included in the study. The immunochemical diagnostic methods were used to determine the pathogenesis of ocular manifestations. Ocular manifestations were examined using biomicroscope

Introduction: Behcet’s disease (BD) is a chronic and multi-systemic disorder with inflammatory characteristics. It is manifested by recurrent oral aphthae, skin lesions, ocular disease, gastrointestinal involvement, neurological disorders, and vascular disease. Arthritis is seen in half of the patients. However, it rarely affects the spinal column, and patients presenting with neck pain have been reported only in one case in the literature. Case Report: Here we report a case of 39 year old male patient with BD whose primary symptom was neck pain. Anti-tubercular therapy was started empirically

In the modern era, neurosyphilis in immunocompetent individuals is very rare compared to pre-antibiotic era. However, the incidence is still a few folds higher in immunodeficient individuals, especially in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The cases we found, involved mostly the brain with eye involvement was found in only five other instances.

Abstract:
Mycobacterium tuberculosis has a large spectrum of extra-pulmonary manifestations, and ocular tuberculosis is one of them. Diagnosis of ocular tuberculosis is often presumptive due to its extreme variability of ocular manifestations and difficulty isolating the organism through biopsy or culture. We report three cases of primary ocular tuberculosis with varied clinical presentations, namely neuroretintis, panuveitis, and occlusive vasculitis. Patients were aged 23 to 45 presented with symptoms of blurring of vision from 3 days to one week prior to presentation. Visual acuity ranged from 6/18 t
