ANCA-associated vasculitis with scleritis, corneal melt, and perforation rescued by rituximab: Case report and literature review.

An 80-year old man who had been diagnosed 5.5 years previously as ANCA-associated vasculitis by temporal artery biopsy developed corneal melt and perforation with scleritis in both eyes. He underwent successful cataract surgery and retained ambulatory vision with the aid of intravenous rituximab. Two additional patients with similar manifestations were found in the literature.
