Celiac disease might be considered in patients with\u00a0uveitis\u00a0of unknown etiology.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Small intestinal biopsy reports performed between July 1969 and February 2008 were collected from all 28 pathology departments in Sweden. From these reports, 29,044 patients with celiac disease \u00a0(equals villous atrophy, Marsh 3) were identified.\u00a0Uveitis\u00a0was defined according to relevant International Classification of\u00a0Disease\u00a0codes in the Swedish National Patient Register. Cox regression was used to estimate hazard ratio (HR) for\u00a0uveitis\u00a0in individuals with celiac disease compared with those in reference individuals matched for age, sex, county and calendar year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">During follow-up, 148 patients with celiac disease developed\u00a0uveitis\u00a0(expected count 112), corresponding to a HR of 1.32. The absolute risk of\u00a0uveitis\u00a0was 50\/100,000 person-years in celiac disease. The risk estimate did not change more than marginally when adjusted for type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis and autoimmune thyroid\u00a0disease\u00a0(HR 1.30).The risk of\u00a0uveitis\u00a0remained significantly increased even 5 years after celiac disease diagnosis (HR 1.31).<a href=\"#footnote_9_762\" id=\"identifier_18_762\" class=\"footnote-link footnote-identifier-link\" title=\"Mollazadegan K, Kugelberg M, Tallstedt L, Ludvigsson JF.

A 28-year-old woman presented with diarrhea, oral ulcers, and refractory\u00a0uveitis (unresponsive to therapy) of 2.5-years duration. She was treated with prednisone, mydriatic drops, and infliximab with no response. She was referred to our hospital at which point her previous diagnosis of\u00a0uveitis\u00a0was confirmed; she was also diagnosed with right-sided sacro-ileitis. The patient did not have arthritis or any skin conditions. Three tests for fecal parasites and a fecal leukocyte were negative. Endoscopy revealed atrophic appearance of the duodenal mucosa. Biopsy showed atrophy of the duodenal villi with intra-epithelial lymphocytes, hyperplasia of the crypts, and chronic inflammatory infiltrate. The search for antiendomysial antibody was greater than 1\/1,280.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The patient was started on a gluten-free diet and after 3\u00a0months demonstrated significant improvement of gastrointestinal symptoms and\u00a0uveitis, as well as a reduction of antiendomysial antibodies (1\/80). After 6\u00a0months, there was complete remission of gastrointestinal symptoms and total control of\u00a0uveitis. The antiendomysial antibody was negative at that time. Clinical\u00a0uveitis\u00a0as a manifestation of\u00a0celiac disease\u00a0has been described in only two cases in the literature.
