“…Apart from neuroimaging, other laboratory tests can be performed in cases where no clear underlying aetiology can be detected. These include serological tests for syphilis 24 ; serum ACE for sarcoidosis 25 ; Mantoux test and chest X-ray for tuberculosis 15 ; ANCA, IgG4, erythrocyte sedimentation rate for GCA, 26 granulomatosis with polyangitis 2 27 and Behcet’s disease 22 and lumbar puncture CSF analysis to rule out central nervous system malignancy and infection. Thus, evaluation of patients with suspected infectious optic neuropathy may include testing complete blood count; erythrocyte sedimentation rate; C reactive protein; serological testing; blood cultures; PCR or antibody assessment of aqueous humour, vitreous, serum or cerebrospinal fluid; a tuberculin skin test and/or quantification; tomodensitometry and MRI.…”

“…Les atteintes ophtalmologiques liées à la tuberculose sont diverses : toutes les structures de l'oeil, à l'exception du cristallin, peuvent être concernées [2]. Certaines de ces manifestations, comme les tuberculomes ou les tubercules de Bouchut, sont liées à la présence du bacille dans l'oeil ; d'autres, parmi lesquelles certaines formes d'uvéites, sont le reflet d'une hypersensibilité retardée au bacille de Koch [5].…”

“…De nombreux phénomènes dysimmuns sont observés au cours de la tuberculose. En outre, un envahissement direct par le bacille de Koch reste probable [2].…”

“…Optic perineuritis is characterized by inflammation of the optic nerve sheath and may be idiopathic or secondary to systemic disease, including Behçet disease, Crohn's disease, granulomatosis with polyangiitis, giant cell arteritis, sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, syphilis, and metastasis. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] The patient's extensive studies as outlined above did not reveal an etiology.…”
