Abstract:
Objective: To report a multimodality approach in the management of human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27) associated fulminant posterior uveitis, an uncommon presentation, with good visual and anatomical recovery. Methods: A 33-year-old young male presented with HLA-B27 associated severe posterior uveitis, which is a relatively uncommon presentation. The patient had severe vitritis with papillitis, which was sequentially and stepwise managed with oral steroids, pars plana vitrectomy, immunosuppressive agents and sustained release intravitreal steroid implant. Results: The patient had a good recovery of vision with complete resolution of inflammation and without any long-term complication. Conclusion: HLAB27 positivity can be associated with an uncommon presentation of fulminant posterior uveitis that requires a judicious and stepwise multimodality approach in its management, and can have a good visual and anatomical outcome as demonstrated in our case.
