Patients with clinical signs highly suspect of OTB with a positive TST and\/or IGRA with other causes ruled out were prescribed anti-tuberculosis therapy (ATT) during 9\u2009months.

Posterior uveitis (43.1%, n\u2009=\u200931) was the main clinical feature. Multifocal choroiditis (25%, n\u2009=\u200918) was the most common choroidal involvement. Concomitant oral prednisone (45.8%, n\u2009=\u200933) during ATT was associated with more recurrences ( p\u2009=\u20090.04). A significant difference ( p\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) between initial and final best-corrected visual acuity after ATT conclusion was observed.
