“…A clinical diagnosis of OT was made based on (1) typical clinical features of OT [1], [3], [4], (2) positive results by serologic testing, and (3) exclusion of other possible causes of granuloma such as ocular toxoplasmosis (absence of Toxoplasma -specific IgG and IgM), sarcoidosis (absence of hilar adenopathy or upper lobe disease on chest radiography, absence of skin lesions suggesting sarcoidosis, absence of hypercalcemia or nephrocalcinosis, and normal levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme), tuberculosis (negative results on interferon gamma release assays, absence of serpiginous choroiditis or retinal vasculitis suggesting ocular tuberculosis, and clinical response to topical/systemic steroid without anti-TB medication), and fungal infection (absence of disseminated fungal diseases, no history of penetrating ocular trauma or surgery within a 6-month period, absence of retinal hemorrhage, which is often observed in eyes with fungal infection but seldom observed in eyes with OT, and clinical response to topical/systemic steroid without anti-fungal agents). The typical clinical features of OT included the presence of a peripheral granuloma (focal, white peripheral nodule with pigmentary scarring or traction retinal detachment), posterior pole granuloma (focal, white nodule with or without posterior pole variable pigmentation), or nematode endophthalmitis (diffuse intraocular inflammation and serology results only positive for Toxocara ) [1], [3], [4].…”
