[Clinical immunological classification of tuberculous uveitis].

Clinical and immunological studies carried out in 251 patients with tuberculous uveitis (TU) revealed three types of inflammatory reactions in the uveal tract in this patient population: productive, exudative, and productive-exudative (mixed), differing by the type of immune disorders. The findings helped develop a clinical immunological classification of TU, taking account of the clinical form of uveitis, type of inflammatory reaction of the uveal tract, disease pattern, involvement of one or both eyes, complications, and the immunopathological variants of TU course.
