Abstract

Mildly elevated, ½ disc diameter, yellow-orange in color choroidal tuberculoma located in superiortemporal of macula was diagnosed in a 21 year old male patient who was treated due to tuberculous meningitis. The lesion was hypofluorescent in early fase of FFA, but hyperfluorescent in late fases. Indocyanine green angiography showed hypofluorescent images in all fases. Two months later, although papil edema was decreased, it had persisted and choroidal tuberculoma was decreased in size. When the fundus flourescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography are taken into consideration together they can give usefull information to clinicians for differentiation of etiology of choroidal granulomas and effectiveness of treatment

Özet

Tüberküloz menenjit nedeniyle tedavi edilen 21 yaşındaki erkek hastanın sol gözünde makula üst temporalinde, ½ optik disk çapında, sarı-portakal renginde, hafif kabarık koroid tüberkülomu saptandı. Fundus flöresein anjiyografide erken dönemde lezyonda hipoflöresans, ilerleyen dönemde kademeli olarak artan hiperflöresans izlendi. İndosiyanin yeşil anjiyografide lezyonda erken dönemde görülen hipoflöresansın geç dönemde de devam ettiği gözlendi. İki ay sonra her iki gözde papil stazının azalmasına rağmen devam ettiği, koroidal tüberkülomun boyutunda ise minimal azalma olduğu gözlendi. Fundus flöresein anjiyografi ve indosiyanin yeşil anjiyografi beraber değerlendirildiğinde koroid granülomlarının ayırıcı tanısına ve tedaviye alınan yanıtın değerlendirilmesine katkı sağlayabilir.
