gondii is an intracellular parasite that can be transmitted congenitally or acquired postnatally Postnatal infection is generally caused by consumption of contaminated water, undercooked meat, or exposure to cat feces, as cats serve as the definitive host of the parasite Epidemiology and Etiology Most common cause of posterior uveitis in children Accounts for 3.3% to 25.6% of all pediatric uveitis Affects up to in 770 live-born infants in endemic regions Mean age 9.5 ± 4.4 years No gender predilection Bilateral in 30% to 63.5% of cases, although disease tends to be active in one eye at

Changing patterns in uveitis of childhood Ophthalmology 1996;103(3):375–383 MASQUERADES It is important to note that neoplasms such as leukemia and retinoblastoma can present with pseudohypopyon, spontaneous hyphema, or iris masses that may be misdiagnosed as uveitis The pseudohypopyon is typically creamy (leukemia) or chalky (retinoblastoma) white in color The iris masses are larger and may be less well defined than inflammatory iris nodules and may be vascularized Another disorder that could be mistaken for uveitis is juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG), which typically presents with unilateral, flesh-colored iris nodules Diagnosis in all cases requires high clinical suspicion; leukemia can be diagnosed with anterior-chamber paracentesis and cytologic examination Diagnosis of JXG may require tissue biopsy REFERENCES Croxatto JO, Fernandez MR, Malbran ES Retinoblastoma masquerading as ocular inflammation Ophthalmologica 1983;186(1):48–53 Fontanilla FA, Edward DP, Wong M,
