Clinical Course and Treatment Paradigms for JIA-related Uveitis and Pars Planitis Uveitis Using Precise Ocular Investigational Methods.

Nowadays, new investigational techniques have made precise follow-up of uveitis possible. We determined the precise inflammatory pattern of JIA uveitis and PP, which is crucial information to determine the therapeutic intervention. As these two entities are common in young and paediatric patients, such precise monitoring is essential to determine adequate treatment paradigms and avoid unnecessary systemic treatment, especially corticosteroids. When the ophthalmic status requires it, multidisciplinary collaboration between the ophthalmologist, the paediatrician and the rheumatologist may be needed to offer optimal management to the patient. In cases of purely ocular involvement, it is the ophthalmologist who should determine the management.
