Crizotinib-associated nodular scleritis in an adolescent.

We report the case of a 17-year-old girl with history of anaplastic large-cell lymphoma on crizotinib therapy who presented with pain and blurred vision in the left eye. Examination demonstrated nodular non-necrotizing anterior scleritis in the left eye. The patient initially improved with oral glucocorticoid treatment until she developed nodular non-necrotizing anterior scleritis in the right eye during taper of this medication. Discontinuation of crizotinib allowed the patient to taper off glucocorticoid treatment, with subsequent resolution of scleritis.
