Multimodal Imaging of Atypical Acute Syphilitic Posterior Placoid Chorioretinitis Mimicking a White Dot Syndrome.

As rates of infectious syphilis continue to rise in the U.S., it is important to be familiar with known manifestations of ocular syphilis as well as report presentations not previously described in the literature. Here, the authors report a case of a 49-year-old myopic woman presenting with bilateral white dots characteristic of a white dot syndrome; these white dots were not evident on slit-lamp examination and became obvious on fundus autofluorescence. She tested positive and was successfully treated for syphilis. This case demonstrates that ocular syphilis can present with white dots and should be on the differential diagnosis of white dot syndromes. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2019;50:e52-e55.].
