Resumo: Purpose: To describe the unusual association of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMTD) and posterior scleritis. Methods: Case report of a 16-year-old female with decreased visual acuity and pain in both eyes. Results: Ophthalmologic examination showed a posterior scleritis, confirmed by ultrasound and angiofluoresceinography. Foot deformities and sensory dysfunction were identified in the patient and some of her relatives. The diagnosis of CMTD in this patient was confirmed by eletrophysiologic studies. Conclusions: The association of posterior scleritis in a patient with CMTD has never been reported. This is also the first description of an inflammatory ocular disease in these patients.

Metodologia: Relato de caso de uma paciente do sexo feminino, 16 anos de idade, com baixa de acuidade visual e dor em ambos os olhos. Resultados: O exame oftalmológico revelou esclerite posterior, observada também por ultra-som e angiofluoresceinografia. Deformidades de pernas e pés foram identificadas na paciente e em seus familiares. O diagnóstico de DCMT na paciente estudada foi confirmado por estudos eletrofisiológicos. Conclusões: A presença de esclerite posterior em paciente com DCMT não é descrita na literatura, não se encontrando também relatos de outras doenças oculares inflamatórias, nestes pacientes.Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), Escola Paulista de Medicina (EPM) Department of OphthalmologyUNIFESP, EPM, Department of OphthalmologySciELOConselho Brasileiro de OftalmologiaUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Martins, Elisabeth N.
