Tropical and Geographical Medicine
|September 1, 1986
Abstract:
A case of tuberculoma of the eye is reported occurring in a 3-year-old girl. Clinically presenting as a case of leucocoria a pre-operative diagnosis of retinoblastoma was made, necessitating enucleation of the eye. Post-operatively a diagnosis of intraocular tuberculosis was made. The differential diagnosis is discussed and the importance of inclusion of intraocular tuberculoma in the differential diagnosis of retinoblastoma is stressed.
