Anterior uveitis in ankylosing spondylitis: a histocompatibility study. 1979

J Scharf, and M Nahir, and J Scharf, and R Brick, and O Gidoni, and A Barzilai, and S Zonis

The occurrence of acute anterior uveitis in ankylosing spondylitis was compared in 53 HLA-B 27 positive and 12 HLA-B 27 negative patients with this disease. Uveitis was found in HLA-B 27 positive patients only. These results suggest that uveitis and ankylosing spondylitis are independent diseases occurring on their own and strongly associated with HLA-B 27.
