Abstract:Extra-articular manifestations are usual in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, posterior uveitis is uncommon and when present it is necessary to investigate other causative conditions, especially infectious. We present a case of tubercular uveitis (TBU) affecting a patient with RA and we discuss its management.
