A CASE OF HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS AND CYTOMEGALOVIRUS RETINITIS COINFECTION.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe a case of a 64-year-old man presenting with cytomegalovirus and herpes simplex virus retinitis coinfection in the setting of Burkitt lymphoma.
Methods: A case report including multimodal imaging and anterior chamber polymerase chain reaction results was used.
Results: This case highlights the importance of the clinical examination and maintaining high diagnostic suspicion for viral retinitis in immunocompromised patients.
Conclusion: Aqueous fluid PCR can be a useful adjunctive test to distinguish and confirm a diagnosis of viral retinitis. Given the limited sample volume of aqueous biopsy, it is important to prioritize the order of PCR testing based on clinical suspicion of the causative agent.
