  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 4-year-old girl was referred to us for bilateral hyperemia since 8 weeks before. She had been found positive for antinuclear antibody by the referring physician. Both eyes showed iridocyclitis, vitreous opacity, and exudates in the inferior fundus. Signs of arthritis developed 6 weeks later, leading to the diagno-sis of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. The intraocular inflammation improved after systemic prednisolone but re-curred after tapering of the dosis. Complications of corticosteroid developed also. Additional cyclosporin A in-duced control of intraocular inflammation with reduced dosis of prednisolone. This case illustrates that pan-uveitis is a liability in juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and that it may respond to systemic cyclosporin A.
