Аннотация
PURPOSE: To describe a patient who developed concurrent acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy (APMPPE) and posterior scleritis.
OBSERVATIONS: We describe a middle-aged woman that developed eye pain and photopsia. She was found to have a "T-sign" on ultrasound of the right eye and multiple, nearly confluent, ill-defined subretinal whitish lesions in both eyes. After an extensive laboratory evaluation and neuroimaging, her photopsia, pain with eye movements, and subretinal lesions began to regress on high dose systemic corticosteroids.
CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: This is the first reported case of bilateral APMPPE and concurrent posterior scleritis. Our case highlights the importance of performing a full review of systems, specifically eliciting neurological changes, and dilated eye examination in all new uveitis cases.
