Rapidly declining visual acuity from neuroretinitis should prompt aggressive diagnostic intervention to preserve eyesight. We present a young adult with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in whom neuroretinitis was the presenting feature of disseminated bartonellosis. Tissue biopsy was required to establish the diagnosis and directed therapy was associated with restored vision.
神经视网膜炎导致的视力迅速下降应促使进行积极的诊断干预以保护视力。我们报告了一例人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)感染的年轻成人病例,其神经视网膜炎是播散性巴尔通体病的表现特征。需要进行组织活检以确立诊断,而针对性治疗则与视力恢复相关。
