Almanca ACD, Jardim SP and Silva BME

Background: Ocular toxoplasmosis is one of the most frequent etiologies of posterior uveitis. Toxoplasma can be considered an agent of high infectivity and low pathogenicity. The purpose of this study is to report a clinical case of ocular toxoplasmosis.
Material and methods: A case report of a patient, with the accomplishment of diagnostic tests with the confirmation of ocular toxoplasmosis.
Results: Serological tests for toxoplasmosis and hemogram were performed in 1987, with the hypothesis of toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis. In the prenatal care, the result of the serology for toxoplasmosis was negative. In 2010, the examinations of Tonometry, Ocular Biomicroscopy and Eye Fund were performed. In 2011, the examinations Tonometry, Coagulogram, Hemogram, Toxoplasmosis, Simple Bilateral Retinography, Ocular Biomicroscopy, Eye Fund examination showed a sequela of peripheral toxoplasmosis in the left eye, being the first recurrence of ocular toxoplasmosis. In 2016, the second recurrence of ocular toxoplasmosis was verified, with the Ocular Biomicroscopy (BO), Intraocular Pressure (IOP) and Eye Fund tests. In 2017, a simple Retinography examination was performed, concluding the presence of a retinochoroiditis scar in the right eye and two chorioretinal scarring in the left eye. The treatment was performed and after the tests were Visual Acuity, Ocular Biomicroscopy and Computerized Visual Campimetry. The latter allowed diagnosing, in both eyes, global indices within normality.
Conclusion: We report a case of ocular toxoplasmosis with ocular recurrences being performed therapeutic approaches, as well as present examinations performed to accompany the patient, thus achieving a more accurate diagnosis to perform a more effective treatment.Y.
