A challenged case of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome: when dermatological manifestations came first.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome (VKHS) is an inflammatory systemic autoimmune disease principally affecting pigmented tissues in the ocular, auditory, integumentary and central nervous systems. Patients are generally women in the fourth decade of life. The prognosis is correlated mainly with the time between diagnosis and the start of treatment and number of recurrent episodes of inflammation. Most complications are mainly ocular. The purpose of this paper is to describe a clinical case of VKHS. MATERIAL AND METHODS:A child with a challenging clinical presentation in which the dermatological symptoms occurred before ocular manifestations. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION:VKHS is rare in children and can be a diagnostic challenge. It seemed interesting to share this case as an opportunity to expand our knowledge of the clinical spectrum of diseases and reflect about current diagnostic criteria.
