Abstract

A group of 30 consecutive HLA-B27 positive acute anterior uveitis(AAU) patients was compared to 30 consecutive HLA-B27 negative AAU patientsThe B27 positive group was characterized by male preponderance, earlier age of onset, unilateral uveitis and favourable outcome with therapy.It is concluded that HLA-B27 typing is a useful diagnostic discriminant in AAU. © 1983 Oxford University Press.
