  • Title: Uveitis in children.
    Author: Kazdan JJ, McCulloch JC, Crawford JS.
    Journal: Can Med Assoc J; 1967 Feb 18; 96(7):385-91. PubMed ID: 6066889.
    Abstract:
    Endogenous uveitis in 117 children aged 15 years or under was investigated at The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, in a 12-year period from 1953 to 1964. This group included 55 children with anterior uveitis, 59 with posterior uveitis, and three with diffuse uveitis. An etiologic diagnosis could be made or the uveitis recognized as part of a definite clinical syndrome in approximately 47% of the 117 children. The commonest cause of posterior uveitis was toxoplasmosis and the commonest associated finding in anterior uveitis was juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Chronic cyclitis of unknown etiology was a relatively common disease.
