Juxtapapillary retinochoroiditis with a psychiatric disorder possibly caused by toxoplasma.
A 32-year-old man suffered from juxtapapillary retinochoroiditis in the right eye and a psychiatric disorder. The diagnosis of toxoplasmosis was supported by the clinical ocular findings, serologic examinations, and isolation of the organism from the cerebrospinal fluid. As the retinochoroidal lesion absorbed, the psychiatric symptoms also disappeared during the course of six weeks.
