Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging, 07/27/09
Leng T et al. – The authors describe a 28–year–old man with systemic tuberculosis who presented with a retinal vascular tumor, peripheral retinal vasculitis, retinal neovascularization, and vitreous hemorrhage causing acute vision loss. He was successfully treated with systemic anti–tuberculosis medications, retinal photocoagulation, and focal ablative diode laser to the tumor. Ophthalmologists should consider performing a purified protein derivative test and a chest x–ray for any patient with a history suspicious for tuberculosis who presents with a vascular tumor.
