Psoriasis-associated progressive necrotizing posterior scleritis: A 6-year follow-up

Abstract

Posterior scleritis is an uncommon condition and it is even rarer in the setting of psoriasis. The necrotizing inflammation observed in the present case and by others revealed sectoral progressive chorioretinitis as a clinical manifestation which may initially raise the suspicion of masquerade malignant and infectious etiologies. Detailed thorough history-taking remains the cornerstone in identifying the possible systemic associations even when occult or subclinical.
