糖尿病網膜症で加療中の70歳男性が1週前からの両眼充血と異物感で受診した。矯正視力は右眼0.9,左眼1.2であった,両眼の鼻側球結膜が充血し,瞼裂斑炎として副腎皮質ステロイド薬の点眼を開始した。両眼の充血と同じ頃から顔面,頸部,両上肢に紅斑が生じ,中毒疹の疑いで皮膚科に入院していた。発熱があり,好中球が主体の白血球増加,CRP値の上昇があり,熱性好中球症候群が疑われた。皮膚の生検でこれを支持する所見が得られた。5か月後に両眼の鼻側と耳側の強膜に充血と肥厚があり,点眼に反応しないのでプレドニゾロンの内服を開始した。以後,眼症状は改善し,4か月後に強膜の菲薄化を残して強膜炎は治癒した。以後2年後の現在まで,眼または皮膚病変の再発はない。
A 70-year-old diabetic male presented with bilateral hyperemia and foreign body sensation since one week before. His corrected visual acuity was 0.9 right and 1.2 left. Both eyes showed hyperemia in the nasal bulbar conjunctiva. He was treated by topical corticosteroid under tentative diagnosis of pincueculitis. He also showed eruption in the face,neck and upper extremities simulating toxic dermatitis. He was ultimately diagnosed with febrile neutrophilic syndrome of Sweet because of fever,neutrophilia,elevated CRP level,and findings by skin biopsy. He develoed bilateral scleritis 5 months later. Topical corticosteroid was ineffective. Systemic prednisolone resulted in cure of scleritis leaving attenuated sclera. There has been no recurrence of ocular or skin lesions during the follow-up of 2 years until present.
