A case of ustekinumab-induced sclerouveitis

PURPOSE: Biologics have proven to be essential therapeutic agents in immune-mediated systemic diseases. Ophthalmologic adverse effects have been reported in the use of more traditional agents, such as TNF-α inhibitors, but there are limited data on ocular side effects associated with the newer gener...

description PURPOSE: Biologics have proven to be essential therapeutic agents in immune-mediated systemic diseases. Ophthalmologic adverse effects have been reported in the use of more traditional agents, such as TNF-α inhibitors, but there are limited data on ocular side effects associated with the newer generation of biologics. OBSERVATIONS: In this report, we present a case of a suspected ustekinumab-associated recurrent sclerouveitis. CONCLUSIONS: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of this type seen with ustekinumab injections. Our goal is to add to the existing literature in order to better understand the mechanism and management of this condition.
