TOXOPLASMOSIS RETINOCHOROIDITIS MASQUERADING AS ENDOGENOUS ENDOPHTHALMITIS IN A CASE OF CONGENITAL LONG QT SYNDROME.

To the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case of acquired toxoplasmosis retinochoroiditis in an immunocompetent patient with congenital long QT syndrome masquerading as endogenous endophthalmitis. The association of congenital long QT syndrome and a recent cardiac procedure with a risk for endogenous endophthalmitis complicated the diagnosis, clinical course, and treatment options. Our case emphasizes the importance of a thorough patient history, comprehensive clinical examination, and supportive multimodal imaging that were used to characterize the infectious process and guide empirical treatment. In addition, laboratory analysis, comanagement with other specialists, and evaluating the response to antitoxoplasma therapy were all instrumental in the eventual diagnosis and treatment of ocular toxoplasmosis in this atypical case.
