Role of secukinumab in ankylosing spondylitis with tubercular uveitis

We present the case of a 32-year-old Indian male one-eyed individual with a history of unilateral panuveitis with HLA B 27 positive spondyloarthropathy on systemic immunosuppressant (Adalimumab). He developed recurrent inflammation in the same eye in a span of 2 years, later complicated with retinal...

description We present the case of a 32-year-old Indian male one-eyed individual with a history of unilateral panuveitis with HLA B 27 positive spondyloarthropathy on systemic immunosuppressant (Adalimumab). He developed recurrent inflammation in the same eye in a span of 2 years, later complicated with retinal vasculitis. On evaluation, he was diagnosed with tubercular uveitis and started on antitubercular treatment along with systemic steroids. Inview of Increased IOP due to steroid response, Inj. Secukinumab ( IL 17 A inhibitor) was started and significant improvement was noted.
