A 31-year-old female was diagnosed with active placoid tubercular serpiginous-like choroiditis (TB-SLC) in the right eye. Serial swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) of deeper choroid revealed unique dilated, tortuous, and disorganized tangled network of medium-sized choroidal vessels (MCV) at presentation (mimicking bag-of-worms) with increased compactness on paradoxical worsening and significant reorganization on resolution. SS-OCTA of choriocapillaris (CC) revealed extensive flow void at presentation, which increased on paradoxical worsening and its reversal with minimal CC atrophy on resolution. Visual acuity improved from 20/200 to 20/30. Serial changes from presentation till resolution provide hypothesis about unique appearance within choroid in TB-SLC lesion.
