Abstract:
Purpose: To report a rare case of relapsing polychondritis with bilateral panuveitis as the first presentation of systemic disease Methods: A 26-year-old female presented with bilateral decreased vision, red eye and ocular pain underwent complete ocular examination, retinal imaging and systemic investigation. Results: Investigations revealed bilateral panuveitis associated with keratitis, retinal hemorrhages and retinal vasculitis. Following systemic work-ups and the pinna cartilage biopsy, diagnosis of relapsing polychondritis was made. Conclusion: Owing to debilitating and even life-threatening consequences of enigmatic relapsing polychondritis, high suspicion of the disease is of paramount importance in cases of retinal vasculitis and uveitis.
