Nodular posterior scleritis mimicking non-pigmented choroidal melanoma: A case report and literature review
Abstract
Rarely, the presentation of posterior scleritis is through nodular lesions. In the absence of certain characteristic features, it is difficult to diagnose it with certainty as it may masquerade as other ocular pathologies, including choroidal tumors. Of these, non-pigmented choroidal melanoma can mimic nodular posterior scleritis to a great extent clinically and radiologically, leading to diagnostic challenges.
This case report aims to highlight the presentation of features constituting a clinical masquerade, which may suggest non-pigmented choroidal melanoma such as nodular posterior scleritis. This report aims to improve the differentiation between these two entities by describing the clinical presentation, imaging findings, and management strategy. A literature review will be presented to draw upon the broader framework of current knowledge and diagnostic practices in order to properly place this case.
