Typical funduscopic findings, together with the confirmed presence of an intraorbital metallic foreign body, led to the diagnosis of chorioretinitis sclopetaria. Conservative management was performed as no severe symptoms were observed. The favorable clinical outcome was confirmed in subsequent reviews. Chorioretinitis sclopetaria is characterized by a proliferative chorioretinal inflammation as a consequence of the expansive wave caused by the entrance of a bullet between the eyeball and the orbit.enAdultChorioretinitisEye Foreign BodiesEye Injuries, PenetratingHumansMaleWounds, Gunshotresearch article29924198open access10.5935/0004-2749.201800491678-2925https://doi.org/10.5935/0004-2749.20180049
