PURPOSE: To report a case of tubercular endophthalmitis simulating retinoblastoma.
METHODS: Case report. An 8-year-old female presented with a history of complete loss of vision and a white pupillary reflex in the left eye of 3 month's duration.
RESULTS: Retinoblastoma could not be excluded on the basis of clinical examination and relevant investigational studies. In the left eye, a computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated a large vitreous mass with foci of calcification. Enucleation in the left eye was performed, and histopathological examination revealed a chronic granulomatous endophthalmitis and acid-fast bacilli consistent with tubercular pathology.
CONCLUSION: This case illustrates that tubercular endophthalmitis with leukocoria and a vitreous mass containing focal calcification may simulate retinoblastoma.
