摘要
Purpose: To report an atypical case of bilateral syphilitic chorioretinitis. Methods: A case report. Results: A young male presented with bilateral pigmentary retinal changes along with multifocal chorioretinal lesions along the blood vessels giving a "beaded pearl " appearance. He was a hitherto undiagnosed case of human immunodeficiency virus infection and was diagnosed to have syphilis. He had a favourable visual and anatomical outcome following treatment. Conclusion: Multifocal chorioretinal lesions along blood vessels forming a "beaded pearls" appearance can be a rare and unique presentation of syphilis.
