Introduction: To report the first case of bilateral ocular decompression retinopathy after uneventful non-perforating deep sclerectomy with mitomycin C in a child with tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis syndrome. Case description: An 8-year-old girl affected by tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis syndrome developed ocular hypertension (45 mmHg in the right eye and 42 mmHg in the left eye) associated with recurrent episodes of uveitis and chronic use of steroids despite maximum hypotensive medical treatment. Bilateral non-perforating deep sclerectomy with mitomycin C (0.2 mg/mL, 1 min) was performed under general anesthesia without complications. The first postoperative day, the visual acuity was reduced to 0.6 in the right eye and 0.05 in the left eye and the intraocular pressure was 3 mmHg in both eyes. Fundoscopy revealed bilateral optic nerve swelling and diffuse retinal hemorrhages, some of them with scattered-white centers. About 2 months after surgery, the visual acuity was normal and the fundus examination showed complete resolution. Conclusion: The ocular decompression retinopathy is an uncommon complication after non-perforating deep sclerectomy. This is the first case of bilateral ocular decompression retinopathy reported after non-perforating deep sclerectomy in a child with ocular hypertension secondary to recurrent uveitis and chronic use of steroids associated with tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis syndrome.
