Abstract
The clinical course of ocular toxocariasis and the chronological development of peripheral retinal and macular granulomas are reported.Removing the epiretinal as well as subretinal component of the granuloma via pars plana vitrectomy and retinotomy techniques yielded an excellent clinical result. Clinicopathologic correlation of the specimen confirmed the diagnosis with histological evidence of degenerated larval structures in granulomatous inflammation.Arch Ophthalmol.1999;117:532-534
