Purpose: To report a histopathology and molecular biology study of an eyeball of a case of acute retinal necrosis (ARN).Methods: Histopathology, immunohistochemistry and molecular biology of an enucleated globe of acute retinal necrosis 6 years after the onset of ARN.Results: Histopathology showed persistence of chronic inflammatory cells with herpes virus inclusion body. Semi nested polymerase chain reaction showed varicella zoster virus.Conclusions: Chronic inflammatory cells and viral genome can be persistent even after 6 years after the onset of ARN.
