I am trying to find solutions for this diophantine equation

$$x^2+y^2+x^2y^2=4z^2$$

I am looking for advice on a procedure to find all positive integer solutions for this equations.

    Add $1$ to both sides and you get $(x^2+1)(y^2+1)=4z^2+1$, which is only possible if $x$ and $y$ are even, which reduces to another problem posted earlier today: $(4x^2+1)(4y^2+1)=4z^2+1$. http://math.stackexchange.com/q/162862/79332012-06-25
