Abstract
In this report we describe nongranulomatous uveitis followed by bilateral retinal vasculitis and much later by the loss of accommodation as initial presentations of demyelinating disease in a 42-year-old female with no other neurologic manifestations. The absence of demyelinating plaques in the initial magneric resonance imaging (MRI) (orbit and cranium) and its occurrence 2 years later, have been described as "lesions appearing with time". Extensive laboratory investigations ruled out infections, systemic vasculitis, and connective tissue disorders. Due to the presence of oligoclonal bands in both cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum, absence of antiaquaporin-4, antimyelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies, and negative vasculitis profile, the exact cause of demyelination (multiple sclerosis/vasculitis related) could not be ascertained. She has currently received 2 cycles of rituximab and at the last follow-up did not show any recurrences.
