A 35-year-old patient with systemic lupus erythematodes is presented. Two weeks after initiation of an immunosuppressive therapy with steroids and cyclophosphamide she developed a bilateral acute necrotising retinitis. Although the infiltration of the vitreous body was only slight the right eye developed a traction retinal detachment within a few days. A vitrectomy was performed but the situation was found to be inoperable due to central necrotic areas. Two days later serological specimen revealed an acute toxoplasmosis as the cause of the bilateral retinitis in this patient. A therapy with sulfadiazine and pyrimethamine was started immediately. Nevertheless two weeks later traction retinal detachment occurred also in the left eye. A reattachment of the retina could be achieved by vitreoretinal surgery.
