Each episode started with acute subretinal inflammation due to a disruption of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)/Bruch's membrane (BM) complex at an AS site, which appeared as a peri-AS whitening on fundus photography. About one week later, as the peri-AS lesions resolved, multifocal white dots characteristic of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) appeared around the optic disc and at the posterior pole. Multimodal imaging, including blue autofluorescence, fluorescein angiography, indocyanine green angiography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT-angiography, confirmed these findings. While the peri-AS lesions resembled multifocal choroiditis, they differed in their extension along the AS and faster resolution. Each AASR episode resulted in a detectable AS enlargement on fundus autofluorescence.

TB retinal lesions can be classified into two broad categories: retinal vasculitis and isolated retinal granuloma. TB retinal vasculitis is the more recognized phenotype and may present with perivascular infiltrates alone or alongside other ocular signs such as subvascular lesions, focal vascular tortuosity, and occlusive vasculitis. These additional signs are crucial for diagnosing TB retinal vasculitis in TB-endemic regions. However, isolated retinal granulomas due to TB are rarely documented and poorly characterized. In this review, we have described the various clinical phenotypes of retinal TB, including a multimodal overview of an isolated intraretinal granuloma. We propose that TB retinitis and retinal vasculitis are part of a disease continuum of retinal TB. To support our hypothesis regarding retinal TB, we draw inferences from historical data derived from histopathological examinations of the eye as well as clinical and experimental studies on cerebral TB vasculitis. We have also reviewed other sites of TB vasculitis, such as the skin and major vessels, including the aorta.
