    Author: Thieme R, Lukassek B, Keinert K.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1980 Jun; 176(6):893-8. PubMed ID: 6779047.
    Abstract:
    With reference to a case of juvenile xanthogranuloma localized in the anterior uvea the authors describe the clinical signs, differential diagnosis, morphology and treatment of this disease. If the juvenile xanthogranuloma is located in the anterior uvea, the eye may be severely affected. Spontaneous hyphema in infants is characteristic. At present radiation is the most successful treatment for preserving the bulbus and visual function. The earlier the disease is discovered the better the chances of successful treatment.
