Miliary tuberculosis and choroidal tuberculoma in a three-month old baby girl: Diagnosis and follow-up of a case.

A three-month old baby girl presented with fever of unknown origin and with signs of worsening of this episode. Funduscopy showed a solitary choroidal lesion in her left eye, as well as extraocular lesions suggesting disseminated tuberculosis. A favourable outcome was achieved after quadruple antibiotic course and cortisone therapy. Disseminated tuberculosis should be considered in cases of fever of unknown origin in children with an unsatisfactory evolution. Ocular examination is mandatory, due to the possible posterior uveitis signs that can help with early diagnosis and treatment of some diseases.
