  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 A 53-year-old woman presented with impaired left visual acuity since 5 days before. She had been diagnosed with nephritis related to anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody(ANCA). She had been treated by massive systemic prednisolone initially and later by daily dosis of 5mg of the same. Her best corrected visual acuity was 1.0 right and 0.3 left. Central scotoma was present in the left eye,leadiang to the diagnosis of retrobulbar optic neuritis. Ten days after her initial visit,she started receiving daily dosis of prednisolone 40mg. Her left visual acuity improved to 3 days later. Central scotoma disappeared one month later. To our best knowledge,this is the first reported case of optic neuritis associated with ANCA-related nephritis. There is a possibility that optic neuritis may be a part of clinical manifestations of ANCA-related nephritis.
