GOOD VISUAL OUTCOME IN A BILATERAL MULTIFOCAL SYPHILITIC CHORIORETINITIS, DESPITE LATE DIAGNOSIS.

Abstract

To report a case of a good visual outcome in a patient with bilateral multifocal syphilitic chorioretinitis, despite the late diagnosis. Ophthalmologic examination, multimodal imaging, including fundus photography, angiography, and optical coherence tomography. The authors describe a 47-year-old heterosexual man with a bilateral multifocal syphilitic chorioretinitis that was lately diagnosed and despite that had a good visual outcome. The diagnosis of ocular syphilis is a challenge; however, once it has been made, even lately, it is eminently treatable.
