[Ocular toxoplasmosis and AIDS. A case report].
Ocular toxoplasmosis is uncommon in the natural course of AIDS. We report here in a case of a 27 year old man with cerebral toxoplasmosis involvement with neurological signs and coma. After an initial improvement with a sulfadiazine and pyriméthamine treatment, we noticed a foveal chorioretinitis with hyalitis in the right eye which deeply decreased the visual acuity (less than 20/400) strongly suggesting a toxoplasmic etiology. Then specific aspects such as serology, acquired or congenital toxoplasmosis, treatment are reviewed.
