摘要：

We treated a patient with reactive lymphoid hyperplasia in whom the diagnosis was made by chorioretinal biopsy. Histopathologic examination and culture of the biopsied specimen allowed us to rule out a neoplastic or infectious process. The biopsy result allowed us to treat him with systemic corticosteroid alone, thus avoiding the potential harmful side effects of other medications, including antituberculous drugs. There were no surgical or postoperative complications. This study confirms the usefulness of chorioretinal biopsy for establishing a diagnosis and formulating a rational treatment plan.
