Bilateral retinal detachment in reactive arthritis: coincidence or association?

Abstract: Retinal lesions are not typically found in reactive arthritis. However, a previous case report documented co-existing retinal detachment and reactive arthritis. We report here a similar case of a 32-year-old male patient with concurrent non-traumatic bilateral retinal detachment and HLA-B27 associated reactive arthritis after urogenital and gastrointestinal infections. Our report substantiates a potential rare association of retinal detachment and reactive arthritis.

“…Retinal vascular involvement was confirmed by using FFA in a 36-year-old male with ankylosing spondylitis after cataract surgery (A. K. . USG B scan is recommended in HLA-B27-associated uveitis in long-standing media opacities with severe inflammation to look for serous retinal detachment (van der Veer et al, 2014) (Preusser et al, 2012) (Belcon et al, 1984). USG B scan can be a valuable tool in the diagnosis of posterior scleritis in HLA B27…”

“…Бывают случаи и хламидийных увеитов [5,11,21], особенно у носителей HLA-B27 [15], а также увеоконъюнктивитов [3]. В целом, по сравнению с конъюнктивитом, воспаление сосудистой оболочки глаза и другие офтальмии (склерит, кератит, катаракта, глаукома) при РХА считаются относительно редкой патологией [18].…”
