Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Systemic sclerosis is a connective tissue condition presented with clinical manifestations, including ocular involvement in a small percentage. A few cases of uveitis were described in the literature, especially in CREST syndrome.
CASE PRESENTATION: The authors reported a case of a 48-year-old male with a blurred vision in his left eye that diagnosed with recurrent uveitis in the setting of CREST syndrome, treated with prednisolone, methotrexate, and golimumab, with improvement.
DISCUSSION: Ocular manifestations of systemic sclerosis include palpebral alterations, keratoconjunctivitis, sicca syndrome, cataracts, pinguecula, and blepharitis. To our knowledge, this is the fifth case of uveitis in a setting of CREST syndrome in the literature, and the first one in sex involvement, as the previous cases were females, and in its treatment by golimumab, an anti-tumor necrosis factor inhibitor.
CONCLUSION: Although this association is low, we believe that it should be taken into consideration when treating these situations to obtain better treatment results. Collaboration between rheumatologists and ophthalmologists is necessary in deciding on treatment.
