Detailed explanation-1: -Inflammation associated with chorioretinitis is usually caused by congenital viral, bacterial, or protozoal infections in neonates. Congenital toxoplasma and cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection are the most common etiologies in this age group.
Detailed explanation-2: -Vitreous inflammation, or vitritis, may result from many causes, including both infectious and noninfectious, including rheumatologic and autoimmune processes. Vitritis is commonly vision threatening and has serious sequelae.
Detailed explanation-3: -Chorioretinitis is usually a response to viral, bacterial, fungal or protozoal infection. It may be limited to the eye but infection may also involve other organs or be generalised. There may be vitreous involvement. Most cases are thought to occur congenitally and they are commonly asymptomatic.
