“…In our patient, the spontaneous improvement in the BCVA accompanied the appearance of the macular star, a phenomenon which occurs when lipid-rich exudates penetrate the outer plexiform layer. Occasionally, symptom onset may precede macular star formation by 1 to 2 weeks [ 27 ]. In our patient, the macular star appeared 5 days after symptom onset.…”

“…Neuroretinitis is characterized by acute visual loss due to optic nerve edema associated with macular exudates in a starlike pattern. The macular star formation may not develop until 1 to 2 weeks after the initial presentation (6) . The exact prevalence of neuroretinitis by B. henselae infection is unknown (7) .…”

“…3 Practically all neuroretinitis cases are of infectious origin, with Bartonella the main agent involved, causing cat scratch disease in two-thirds of the cases. 3,4 The differential diagnosis reported in the literature is performed with various infectious diseases, such as toxoplasmosis, leptospirosis, mumps, herpes simplex virus, salmonella, tuberculosis, Lyme disease and syphilis. 4 Our report has added another rare diagnostic possibility when neuroretinitis appears in an individual with symptoms of viral infection in a dengue-endemic region.…”
