Tuberculosis is a common illness among patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), and therefore, choroidal tubercles are expected to be found in these patients. Nevertheless, this association (AIDS-induced choroidal tuberculosis) is infrequently reported in the literature. We report four cases of patients with AIDS and tuberculosis who did not have any visual complaints and in whom a routine funduscopic examination disclosed the presence of choroidal nodules. These lesions were not accompanied by vitritis, iridocyclitis, or any sign of uveitis as has been reported in cases of tuberculous choroiditis in patients with AIDS by others in the literature.
