[Anterior uveitis in a juvenile chronic arthritis, oligoarticular form].
We present the case of a 16-year-old male teen-ager admitted in the Ophthalmology Clinic Craiova, diagnosed with Anterior neglected acute uveitis in the left eye. Before and simultaneous with the ocular manifestations, the patient complained of pain on the hips joints. The pediatric examination, based on the clinical features and the laboratory findings, diagnosed him with Juvenile chronic arthritis, oligoarthritis type. The evolution was good under the corticosteroid therapy.
