Late-Onset Panuveitis in a Chinese Girl with Sporadic Blau Syndrome: A Case Report

Abstract

Introduction: Blau syndrome (BS) is a rare autoimmune disease. We report here an atypical case of BS. Case Presentation: We present a case of late-onset eye manifestations in a Chinese girl of 18 years old with sporadic BS, presenting with panuveitis. We performed comprehensive ocular examinations including fluorescein fundus angiography and indocyanine green angiography for her. The oral hormone plus local anti-inflammatory eye drops have well controlled the inflammation of her eyes. Conclusion: Our case highlights the necessity of systemic medical history inquiry for every eye discomfort.
