Cotton wool exudates were found in a patient during a flare-up of seropositive rheumatoid disease with polyarthritis and pericarditis. After therapy with cortisone a concomitant improvement of the cardiac arthritic and fundal lesions was observed. It is suggested that the fundal lesions in this patient were due to the rheumatoid disease.
