Abstract :
Although anterior uveitis and skin and visceral involvement has been reported in association with measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccination [1-4], we are unaware of previous reports of panuveitis. In 2004, millions of Iranians were immunized with the live attenuated MMR vaccine during a mass vaccination project. We present a case of panuveitis and dermal vasculitis that developed shortly after MMR vaccination. The patient was diagnosed, investigated and followed up at the Khatam-al-Anbia eye centre, Mashad.
