Tubercles of the choroid.

In 1948 two of us (Illingworth and Wright) reviewed the literature conceming tubercles of the choroid and described the natural history of the disease as seen in children under our care. We pointed out that the favourable response of children with miliary or meningeal tuberculosis to streptomycin treatment had for the first time made possible the study of the natural history of choroidal tubercles. Since that time we have had considerable further experience of miliary and meningeal tuberculosis and have been able to observe the choroidal tubercles in our original cases for several more years. Below is an account of our findings.
