This article describes a patient who developed Harada disease-like uveitis after quadrivalent human papillomavirus (HPV4) vaccination and experienced resolution without any systemic treatment. To achieve this aim, a case report and a review of related literature on HPV vaccination causing uveitis were conducted. The results of this study show a diagnosis of Harada disease-like uveitis after HPV4 vaccination based on the vaccination history, clinical symptoms, and multimodal imaging. Resolution without any systemic corticosteroid treatment was observed. According to these findings, patients may develop uveitis with Harada-like features, which can be a mild and self-limiting process, after HPV4 vaccination.

Article Synopsis
  • Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can lead to Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease (VKHD)-like uveitis, but this is the first report linking a new PD-1 monoclonal antibody, Toripalimab, to such adverse effects.
  • A case is presented where a patient developed severe binocular acute panuveitis and exudative retinal detachment after completing 20 months of Toripalimab treatment for bladder cancer.
  • The patient's eye condition improved following discontinuation of ICIs and treatment with corticosteroids, highlighting the need for vigilance regarding eye complications in long-term PD-1 therapy.

The combination of BRAF kinase inhibitors (BRAFis) and MEK kinase inhibitors (MEKis) is one of the most promising chemotherapy regimens in the treatment of BRAF-mutant melanoma. Although BRAFi plus MEKi combined therapy is widely used for the treatment of BRAF-mutated melanoma, the incidence of uveitis caused by BRAFi plus MEKi is limited. In this report, we described five cases (two men and three women) of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease-like uveitis in melanoma patients who received BRAFi plus MEKi combined therapy.
