title: [Role of enterovirus infection in the etiology of uveitis in children].
abstract: A total of 224 cases with endogenic uveitis in infants are analyzed. The results of complex clinical and immunological analysis and serologic findings bring the authors to a conclusion that enteroviral uveitis makes up 42 percent of all uveitis in children aged under 3 and that this condition is prevalent in this country. Typical late complications, long persistence of virus-neutralizing antibodies in high titers (up to 8-10 years after convalescence) permit a retrospective etiological diagnosis.
