[Etiological study of uveitis in young children]

The etiology of acute infectious diseases accompanied by uveitis in young children has been studied. In these investigations a high degree of contamination with virus ECHO 19 in patients with acute diseases accompanied by uveitis has been revealed and the ophthal motropic properties of the virus have been experimentally established, which indicates that certain variants of virus ECHO 19 play, probably, some role in the etiology of uveitis in young children.
