Undifferentiated connective tissue disease (UCTD) represents a group of diseases which do not fulfill the criteria of rheumatologic diseases or may be considered as an early stage of any of these diseases. Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a disease accompanied by symptoms of inflammatory low back pain and peripheral symptoms, with more spine and sacroiliac joint involvement. In this report, we, for the first time, present a case of UCTD presenting with axSpA in whom the initial finding was optic neuritis, which is rarely seen in UCTD.
未分化结缔组织病(UCTD)是一组不符合风湿性疾病标准或可被视为这些疾病任何一种早期阶段的疾病。轴性脊柱关节炎(axSpA)是一种伴有炎性腰背痛和外周症状,且脊柱和骶髂关节受累较多的疾病。在本报告中,我们首次呈现了1例以axSpA为表现的UCTD病例,其最初表现为视神经炎,这在UCTD中很少见。
