[The importance of virological studies in uveitis].
The paper describes results of the analysis of 853 case histories of patients with uveitis and those of virologic examinations (viruses of respiratory group) in 47 patients with severe uveitis predisposed to chronic recurrent course and resistant to used therapy. As a result of virologic studies, adenovirus from the conjunctiva of one patient was obtained; immunofluorescent studies were positive in 11 patients (virus of grip B in 2, of paragrippe in 1, adenovirus in 4, RS virus in 3, mixed virus infection in 1 patient). Positive serologic reactions were observed in 22 patients (virus of grip A in 7, of grip B in 2, of paragrippe in 1, RS virus in 1, mixed virus infection in 11 persons). The results obtained speak about necessity of virological studies in patients with severe uveitis. It is advisable to combine immunofluorescence and serologic examinations of patients.
