Abstract:
A 22-year-old woman is described with gastrointestinal complaints, sclerokeratitis, and a bilateral progressive hearing loss. The clinical picture, the outcome of lymphocyte stimulation tests against S antigen (retina soluble antigen), outer rod segment, and scleroprotein, and the successful administration of corticosteroids after a partial spontaneous hearing improvement, are suggestive of an autoimmune disease.
