Beaded Pearls Appearance in Syphilitic Chorioretinitis.

To report an atypical case of bilateral syphilitic chorioretinitis. A case report. 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. Multifocal chorioretinal lesions along blood vessels forming a "beaded pearls" appearance can be a rare and unique presentation of syphilis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
