Laser treatment of toxoplasmosis.
Medical treatment of toxoplasmosis may not be effective always, or toxicities may preclude further use of medications. In this situation, laser photocoagulation may be considered. Three cases of toxoplasmosis were treated with krypton/argon laser photocoagulation. One case required retreatment. All remained quiescent after treatment.
