[Bilateral chorioretinitis after infection with Yersinia enterocolitica].
We report a case of severe, bilateral panuveitis with disseminated chorioretinis. With systemic steroid therapy the inflammation resolved within 4 weeks, resulting in chorioretinal scarring. Because the agglutination titer against Yersinia enterocolitica type 3 was increased to 6 times over normal, we consider Yersinia to be the most probable cause of the panuveitis. Concomitantly, serology revealed evidence for recent infection with mumps and shigella. Both can cause anterior uveitis. Therefore, we cannot exclude interactions, which may influence the clinical picture. After reviewing the literature we describe for the first time a case of chorioretinits and panuveitis associated with infection by Yersinia.
