Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Toxoplasma gondii both cause necrotizing retinopathy in immunosuppressed hosts. Because of the high prevalence of serum antibodies to these agents in the general population and the risks associated with retinal biopsies, diagnosis of these infections is usually based on clinical findings alone, but the two infections can be confused with one another because of similar clinical features. Accurate diagnosis is critical, however, because both diseases are treatable but require different medical therapies.
