Pigmented paravenous retinochoroidal atrophy is an uncommon fundus disorder with a striking clinical presentation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In the present case the visual acuity at presentation was poor caused by the macular involvement. There was no evidence of ocular inflammation. [ojoonline.org]

Systemic workup revealed QuantiFERON-gold positive. This is the first report of unilateral PPRCA secondary to presumed ocular tuberculosis. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2017;48:345-349.]. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Results of laboratory studies, including a vasculitis workup, were within normal limits. A tuberculin skin testing result was 20 mm, erythrocyte sedimentation rate was 23 mm/hr, and a Quantiferon TB gold test (Qiagen) result was normal. [retinatoday.com]

Laboratory test Laboratory studies should be aimed towards narrowing the differential diagnosis depending on the presentation and given the overlap with inflammatory degenerative diseases a workup can include: comprehensive metabolic panel, complete and [eyewiki.org]

The visual prognosis for patients with pigmented paravenous retinochoroidal atrophy is quite good. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis - this condition recurs over months and frequent foveal involvement gives rise to a relatively poor prognosis. Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) Nature - uncommon, idiopathic and self-limiting condition. [patient.info]

Prognosis Patients with PPRCA have good visual prognosis with slowly progressive disease. In patients without macular involvement, visual acuity is minimally adversely affected. [eyewiki.org]

Etiology The etiology of PPRCA remains unknown with a presumed initial inflammatory insult that leads to the slow developmental of the retinal findings. [eyewiki.org]

Although earlier reports have suggested a possible post-inflammatory etiology such as tuberculosis, rubeola and syphilis as possible causes, a definite etiology remains elusive. [2] Typically, bone corpuscle pigmentation is seen along the distribution [ojoonline.org]

The etiology in this case could be inflammatory, infectious, or both. To the best of our knowledge after an extensive literature search, PPCRA with vasculitis has not been previously reported. [retinatoday.com]

The cause of the condition may be unknown or idiopathic, although a dysgenetic, degenerative, hereditary etiology or even an inflammatory cause has been hypothesized. [ingentaconnect.com]

We could not confirm the etiology as our patient could not undergo genetic studies. A long-term follow-up would reveal how the left eye condition progresses, particularly whether RP like degeneration develops in that eye. [ijo.in]
