摘要
The authors report the case of a 25-year-old woman who presented unilateral Eales disease associated with biologically confirmed pulmonary tuberculosis. The patient, from a family with a history of tuberculosis, showed a painless and abrupt decrease in visual acuity of the right eye with venous and arterial vasculitis. Fluorescein angiography confirmed the existence of peripheral ischemia and vascular abnormalities. The biological exam showed a positive PPD and the BK was isolated. Antibiotic and corticosteroid drugs were used in the treatment. The clinical, immunopathological and therapeutic aspects of this disease are discussed.
