A 39-year-old male presented with bilateral hearing loss and progressive left eye vision loss over a 14-month period. The development of systemic symptoms including arthralgias, enlarged lymph nodes, and profound leg weakness, prompted a workup for lymphoproliferative disease, infection, and autoimmune inflammatory conditions which was unrevealing. Subsequently, the right visual acuity declined from 20/25 to 20/70 and the left to hand motions due to corneal interstitial keratitis. There was limitation of left infraduction. Neuroimaging revealed dural thickening of the internal auditory canals, cavernous sinuses, cerebellum, and along the optic nerves. There was fusiform enhancing enlargement of the left inferior and medial rectus muscles and pathologic enlargement of the left lacrimal gland. Biopsy of the left lacrimal gland and left inferior rectus revealed fibrosis and lymphocytic infiltration. The patient was diagnosed with atypical Cogan syndrome and treated with oral prednisone, with improvement in visual acuity of the right eye, motility of the left eye, and systemic weakness.
一位 39 岁男性,双侧听力丧失,并在 14 个月期间逐渐出现左眼视力丧失。全身症状包括关节痛、淋巴结肿大和严重下肢无力,促使对淋巴增生性疾病、感染和自身免疫性炎症进行检查,但未发现异常。随后,右眼视力从 20/25 下降到 20/70,左眼因角膜间质性角膜炎而仅能看到手动。左眼下转受限。神经影像学显示内听道、海绵窦、小脑和视神经的硬脑膜增厚。左侧内、下直肌梭形增强扩大,左侧泪腺病理性增大。左侧泪腺和左侧下直肌活检显示纤维化和淋巴细胞浸润。该患者被诊断为非典型 Cogan 综合征,并接受口服泼尼松治疗,右眼视力、左眼运动和全身无力均有改善。
