Abstract

A 39-year-old male patient presented with"decreased bilateral visual acuity for more than one year". He has been infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) for more than 10 years, and was diagnosed as "binocular panuveitis" "binocular optic disc vasculitis"in the local hospital, with no improvement after six months of systemic hormone shock, intermittent oral hormone and immunosuppressive treatment. Comprehensive examinations were conducted after arrival, Optical coherence tomography revealed the damage of posterior retina, macular edema, fluorescein fundus angiography showed diffuse punctate transmitted fluorescence and vascular leakage, rapid syphilis serotonin response (RPR) 1∶64, leading to the diagnosis of binocular syphilitic uveitis. After three weeks of antibiotic treatment, oral hormone sequential reduction treatment, disease control, vision recovery.
