Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Iris crystals, previously thought to be Russell bodies linked to hypergammaglobulinaemia, were observed in three patients with iridocyclitis. Serum protein electrophoresis in two patients did not confirm hypergammaglobulinaemia, challenging this association.
