The co-occurrence of inflammatory eye disease and hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is uncommon; ocular involvement typically manifests as anterior uveitis. In this report, we present a unique case of peripheral ulcerative keratitis (PUK) where both infectious and rheumatological workup was negative, leading us to consider the possibility of an association between this condition and severe HS. As far as we are aware, there have only been six documented cases of PUK associated with HS.

Background: Anterior uveitis is a common manifestation in individuals with rheumatic conditions such as spondylarthritis, Behçet's syndrome, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and sarcoidosis. Clinical differentiation between granulomatous and non-granulomatous corneal endothelial exudates is crucial to subsequent diagnosis and treatment. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) can ensure an accurate differential diagnosis and appropriate follow-up after local and systemic therapy.

The global pandemic caused by COVID-19 led to numerous novel cases of autoimmune and rheumatologic disorders that developed postinfection. Along these lines, these authors report an unusual case of scleredema following SARS-CoV-2 infection in an individual who lacked any known risk factors. Given the emergence of newer mutant strains of COVID-19 and steadily rising numbers of people receiving COVID-19 vaccinations, physicians should remain alert for as yet unrecognized manifestations of the disease.

Background: Behcet disease (BD) is a rare small vessel vasculitis that commonly manifests as recurrent painful oral or genital ulcerations, uveitis, and skin lesions. Some patients with BD develop neurological symptoms termed neuro-Behcet's disease. In the emergency department setting, these symptoms can be mistaken for other common acute issues including stroke, infection, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, toxin ingestion, or psychiatric conditions.
