Tuberculosis continues to be a significant global public health issue. Tuberculosis most often affects the lungs. However, children are more likely to have extrapulmonary involvement compared to adults. Ocular involvement is a rare extrapulmonary manifestation of tuberculosis. Ocular tuberculosis may affect any part of the eye and can be remain unnoticed due to the lack of clinically evident symptoms or findings, if there is no history of tuberculosis contact or other systemic signs or if these are not questioned. Here, we present an adolescent case who was diagnosed with pulmonary and ocular tuberculosis when investigating the underlying cause of granulomatous uveitis and successfully controlled with four drug regimen anti-tuberculosis and methylprednisolone treatment. In conclusion, ocular tuberculosis is an important cause of ocular morbidity. Diagnosis and follow-up require a multidisciplinary approach.

Tüberküloz tüm dünyada önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunu olarak devam etmektedir. Tüberküloz en sık akciğerleri tutar. Ancak çocuklarda erişkinlere göre ekstrapulmoner tutulum daha yaygındır. Ekstrapulmoner tutulum içinde göz tutulumu oldukça nadirdir. Oküler tüberküloz uveal traktın tamamının inflamasyonuna yol açabilir. Oluşturduğu granülomatöz üveit hastalığa özgü olmadığı için tüberküloz temas öyküsü ya da diğer sistemik belirtiler yoksa, ya da sorgulanmazsa pratikte gözden kaçabilmektedir. Bu yazıda granülomatöz üveit nedeni araştırılır iken pulmoner ve oküler tüberküloz tanısı konularak dörtlü anti tüberküloz ve metilprednizolon tedavisi ile hastalığı kontrol altına alınan adelösan bir olguyu sunacağız. Sonuç olarak, oküler tüberküloz önemli bir oküler morbidite nedenidir. Tanı ve takibi multidisipliner bir yaklaşım gerektirir.
