ABSTRACT Purpose Idiopathic retinal vasculitis, aneurysms and neuroretinitis is a rare vision-threatening condition. If untreated vision loss occurs due to complications of progressive retinal ischaemia including retinal neovascularisation, neovascular glaucoma and retinal exudation. Despite the proposed underlying inflammatory aetiology this condition demonstrates poor response to corticosteroid treatment. The aim was to describe two paediatric cases of idiopathic retinal vasculitis, aneurysms and neuroretinitis treated with infliximab. Methods Two case reports. Results Infliximab treatment led to resolution of aneurysmal dilatations and retinal vasculitis, and reversal of some retinal capillary non-perfusion. Conclusion Early infliximab treatment should be considered in cases of idiopathic retinal vasculitis, aneurysms and neuroretinitis.
