The development and spontaneous resolution of a full-thickness macular hole in bartonella henselae neuroretinitis in a 12-year-old boy.
Abstract
PURPOSE:
To describe an unusual case of Bartonella henselae neuroretinitis complicated by macular hole (MH) development.
OBSERVATIONS:
A full-thickness macular hole developed in a 12-year-old boy in association with serology-confirmed Bartonella henselae neuroretinitis. Following a period of observation, the MH closed without intervention.
CONCLUSION AND IMPORTANCE:
MH may occur as a complication of neuroretinitis secondary to Cat-Scratch Disease.
