title: Toxoplasmosis Neuroretinitis: A Case Report.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Neuroretinitis (NR) is considered to be an inflammatory condition which is characterized by optic disc edema and, as a result, formation of a macular star figure. NR is an atypical presentation of toxoplasmosis infection, and such cases are quite rare.
  
  
  METHODS
  A 13-year-old girl presented with painless subacute visual loss in her right eye for a week at Khatam-Al-Anbia eye hospital in Mashhad, Iran. Following comprehensive evaluation, a diagnosis of toxoplasmic NR was made. The NR favorably responded to classic anti-toxoplasmosis treatment. A juxtapapillary retinochoroidal scar appeared after disc swelling resolution.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Although toxoplasmosis NR is rare, it should be considered in the differential diagnoses of NR.
