a, h Slit lamp photograph of the right eye showing multiple vascularized granulomas that seemed to arise from the angle of the anterior chamber and anterior surface of iris. A scleral nodule, partially extending into the cornea, is seen near the inferior limbus. However, there is no direct extension of the iris lesions into cornea. b Ultrasound biomicroscopy of right eye, showing continuation of the iris granuloma into the ciliary body and then onto the sclera. c Left submandibular lymphadenopathy. d Near confluent epithelioid cell granulomas in the sub-epithelium. Caseation necrosis within the tubercles is slight to absent (haematoxyin–eosin, ×400). e CT scan of the head (axial view) showing multiple ring enhancing lesions (arrow heads) in the brain parenchyma. f CT thorax showing small, non-cavitatory lesion (arrow) in the left apical lobe. g Slit lamp photograph 2 weeks post-treatment, showing partial resolution of iris granuloma and scleral nodule
