Abstract
The article describes the case of successful use of human monoclonal antibodies to the tumor necrosis factor- adalimumab in a patient with a severe course of juvenile arthritis associated with enthesitis and uveitis resistant to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, methotrexate, glucocorticosteroids that have been applied topically and retrobulbarly. After the first adalimumab administration, the pain syndrome was stopped, the duration of morning stiffness was significantly reduced, the laboratory indices of the disease activity were normalized by the 4th week of treatment, uveitis activity was stopped, the inflammatory changes in the joints regressed and the phase of inactive disease was ascertained by the 12th week. The duration of remission of articular syndrome and uveitis during treatment with adalimumab was 26 months. Adverse reactions were not registered during therapy.
