title: Panuveitis responsive to 2-CdA: an unusual ocular presentation of hairy cell leukemia.
abstract: Systemic involvement in hairy cell leukemia (HCL), has rarely been reported but ocular involvement is extremely uncommon. We report an unusual ocular presentation of HCL due to panuveitis with dramatic improvement following treatment with 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine (2-CdA).
