Abstract

We herein report an atypical toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis case in which serous macular detachment (SMD) responded quickly to HBO therapy. A 24-year-old male patient referred to our department complaining of decreased vision in his left eye. Fundoscopy revealed an old retinochoroidal scar, and deep retinal whitening 2 disc diameters in size adjacent to the old scar with a large SMD exceeding the vascular arcades. Though the antibodies were negative, the diagnosis of toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis was made. Since the main reason for decreased vision was SMD, and ischeamic properties of the disease he was offered and then had 20 sessions of HBO therapy. Serous macular detachment was completely resolved after 10 sessions of HBO therapy, and a small scar with full vision was observed at 1-month visit. Based on our current experience HBO therapy may have a potential use in toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis with ischemic complications such as SMD, retinal vascular occlusions, macular edema or choroidal neovascularizations.

Özet

Hiperbarik oksijen (HBO) tedavisine hızla cevap veren seröz makula dekolmanının (SMD) geliştiği atipik toksoplazmik retinokoroiditli bir olguyu bildirmekteyiz. Yirmi dört yaşında erkek hasta sol gözünde görme azalması şikayeti ile kliniğimize sevkedildi. Fundoskopide eski bir retinokoroidal skar ve vasküler arkadları aşan SMD ile birlikte eski skar alanına komşu 2 disk çapında derin bir retinal beyazlanma alanı izlendi. Antikorların negatif olmasına rağmen toksoplazmik retinokoroidit tanısı konuldu. Görme azalmasının ana nedeni SMD ve hastalığın iskemik özellikleri olduğundan hastaya HBO tedavisi önerildi ve 20 seans HBO tedavisi aldı. On seans HBO tedavisi sonrasında SMD tamamen düzeldi ve 1 ay sonra küçük bir skarla birlikte görmenin tama çıktığı gözlendi. Mevcut tecrübemiz göre SMD, retinal vasküler tıkanmalar, maküler ödem veya koroidal neovaskülarizasyonlar gibi iskemik komplikasyonlar ile birlikte olan toksoplazmik retinokoroiditte HBO tedavisi potansiyel bir kullanıma sahip olabilir.
