Case Studies in Uveitis: Real Cases and Practical Insights , 1/E is a case-based teaching casebook developed under the aegis of the International Uveitis Study Group (IUSG), compiling a series of 18 expert webinars into book form. Each of the 18 chapters opens with an expert lecture on a major uveitis theme and is built around real, illustrative cases of graded complexity (simple, moderate, and complex) presented by fellows and discussed by mentors — bringing the practical, step-by-step clinical reasoning of a live case conference onto the page. The book spans the full clinical spectrum of uveitis across 18 chapters: the four core anatomical presentations (anterior, intermediate, posterior, panuveitis), scleritis, major infectious causes (ocular toxoplasmosis, tuberculosis, syphilis, herpetic anterior uveitis, acute retinal necrosis, RNA viruses, HIV/AIDS-related complications), key noninfectious and systemic-disease-associated entities (juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis, Behçet's disease, non-infectious posterior uveitis), and dedicated chapters on systemic therapy, local therapy, and drug-induced uveitis. Each case is presented with high-quality clinical images, imaging workups (fundus photography, fluorescein angiography, OCT, B-scan ultrasound), structured laboratory/serologic workup summaries, slit-lamp examination tables (OD/OS format), management flowcharts and stepladder treatment algorithms, and a concluding Discussion section — giving readers over 50 real-life cases contributed by international experts, emphasizing geographic, immunological, and etiological diversity across infectious, noninfectious, and masquerade syndromes. Who This Book Is For: Ophthalmologists: as a practical, case-based reference for diagnosing and managing the full breadth of anterior-to-panuveitic presentations encountered in clinic. Immunologists: for the immunopathogenic and systemic-disease-associated dimensions of uveitis explored across infectious, autoimmune, and drug-induced case chapters. Uveitis Fellows and Trainees: as a structured, mentor-reviewed case library that mirrors the graded (simple-to-complex) teaching format of the original IUSG webinar series. Why This Book Helps: Teaches clinical reasoning, not just facts: each case models the differential-diagnosis and decision-making process step by step, rather than presenting conclusions alone. Covers the full etiological spectrum in one volume: infectious, noninfectious, and masquerade syndromes are all represented, reducing the need to consult multiple references. Grounded in real diagnostic and imaging workups: serology, OCT, B-scan, and angiography findings are shown alongside management decisions, closely mirroring real clinic workflow. International, multi-expert perspective: cases and discussions are contributed by uveitis specialists across multiple countries, capturing geographic and practice-pattern diversity. Systemic and local therapy guidance in dedicated chapters: practical, evidence-graded treatment tables (e.g. biologic agents with recommendation levels) support real-world prescribing decisions. Key Features: 18 chapters compiling an 18-part IUSG webinar series, each built around an expert lecture plus graded (simple/moderate/complex) real cases Over 50 real-life uveitis cases contributed by international experts across diverse geographic and practice settings Covers infectious, noninfectious, and masquerade uveitis syndromes, including dedicated chapters on ocular tuberculosis, syphilis, HIV/AIDS, Behçet's disease, and JIA-associated uveitis High-quality clinical images, OCT/B-scan/angiography figures, and structured laboratory workup summaries with every case Dedicated chapters on systemic and local therapy, including evidence-graded biologic-agent recommendation tables
