摘要

Purpose: To report the first case of stroke in a patient with relentless placoid chorioretinitis.Methods: Observational case report.Results: A 20-year-old female with newly diagnosed relentless placoid chorioretinitis was urgently evaluated for unilateral paresthesias. She was found to have acute bilateral pontine strokes and cerebral vasculitis on magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and cerebral angiography.Conclusions: We report the first case of stroke due to cerebral vasculitis in a patient with relentless placoid chorioretinitis. This case emphasizes the need for timely evaluation of neurological symptoms in patients with this ocular diagnosis.
