摘要

A child with anterior uveitis as the sole manifestation of group A streptococcal infection is described. There was a history of a 'viral' upper respiratory tract infection 2 weeks before the onset of uveitis. A post-streptococcal phenomenon was diagnosed on the basis of serial ASO titre (ASOT) monitoring. There are few reports of patients with post-streptococcal uveitis. ASOT monitoring should be included in the work-up of uveitis of undetermined aetiology.
