A 12-year-old patient diagnosed with congenital toxoplasmosis, with no systemic treatment at the time, who presented with a decreased visual acuity (VA) in his left eye (LE). On examination, VA in the LE was 0.05 and the fundus examination revealed a focus of chorioretinitis adjacent to a pigmented macular scar, as well as a large associated subretinal haemorrhage. After confirming the diagnosis of choroidal neovascular membrane secondary to ocular toxoplasmosis, treatment was started with systemic anti-toxoplasmosis drugs and two anti-VEGF intravitreal injections separated by one month. Finally, the patients had a VA in LE of 0.4, with reabsorption of the haemorrhage, leaving an inactive pigmented macular scar. The use of anti-VEGF intravitreal injections in cases of ocular toxoplasmosis has been associated with a reactivation of old lesions, so the prophylactic use of oral anti-toxoplasmosis drugs is recommended in these cases.
一名12岁患者被诊断为先天性弓形虫病,当时未接受全身治疗,左眼视力下降。检查发现,左眼视力为0.05,眼底检查显示脉络膜视网膜炎病灶邻近色素性黄斑瘢痕,以及大片相关的视网膜下出血。在确诊为眼部弓形虫病继发脉络膜新生血管膜后,开始使用全身抗弓形虫药物治疗,并在一个月内进行了两次玻璃体内抗VEGF注射。最后,患者左眼视力为0.4,出血吸收,留下无活性的色素性黄斑瘢痕。在眼部弓形虫病病例中使用玻璃体内抗VEGF注射与旧病灶重新激活有关,因此在这些病例中建议预防性使用口服抗弓形虫药物。
