A rare case of scleritis and multiple rheumatoid pulmonary nodules associated with seronegative rheumatoid arthritis.
Oxford Medical Case Reports 2023 January
Seronegative rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is less likely to have extra-articular manifestations than seropositive RA. An 80-year-old man with polyarthritis was diagnosed with seronegative RA in which rheumatoid factors and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides were not detected. He had multiple pulmonary nodules that diminished in size following treatment for RA, leading to the diagnosis of pulmonary rheumatoid nodules. During his treatment course, he developed scleritis, which could have resulted in blindness. As oral steroids did not improve his condition, topical steroid injections were administered, and his symptoms gradually improved. Here, we present a case of seronegative RA with an unusual combination of extra-articular manifestations: rheumatoid pulmonary nodules and scleritis.
