The authors report a case of giant nodular posterior scleritis mimicking choroidal tumor. Fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and ultrasonography were suggestive of a mass lesion, which resolved with oral steroids. Giant nodular posterior scleritis is a possibility in any amelanotic choroidal mass lesion especially if associated with pain. Ultrasonography and FFA differentiates it from amelanotic melanoma and choroidal hemangioma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
