Posterior scleritis is a potentially blinding inflammatory disorder rarely seen in children. Standard care consists of systemic administration of steroids and immunosuppressants such as methotrexate or ciclosporin A. We describe the case of a young girl suffering from therapy refractory posterior scleritis successfully treated with the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor infliximab.
