“…In several studies, the prevalence of JABD was estimated to be in the range of 2-5% of all ABD-suffering patients [4,15,21,22,23]. Indicatively, the prevalence of JABD in France has been recorded as 1/600,000 [24].…”

Adamantiades-Behçet disease (ABD) is a chronic, multisystemic, recurrent, inflammatory vascular disorder of unknown etiology. Patients with symptoms initially appearing at the age of 16 or less are considered as cases of juvenile-onset ABD (JABD). JABD is relatively rare compared to ABD of adults, and only case reports and case studies have been published regarding this subtype of the disease. Epidemiology, clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of JABD are discussed in this review.

“…The mean age at onset of Behçet uveitis is 14.6 years, and rubeosis iridis, posterior synechiae, and cataracts are found in ,2% of cases. 23 A diagnostic aid in identifying a causative agent is the paired aqueous humor and serum sampling to assess intraocular production of antibodies. Antibodies synthesized in the eye and detected in aqueous humor can have 2 different sources: a polyspecific concomitant immune response or a persisting antigen.…”

Many reports associating uveitis after vaccination have been reported, including 2 cases after measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine. We report the case of a 12-month-old girl who developed a unilateral anterior uveitis with rubeosis and cataract 3 months after an MMR vaccination at 9 months of age. Aqueous humor analysis showed the presence of more rubella-specific immunoglobulin G in the affected eye than in the unaffected one. This is the second report showing an association between MMR vaccine and anterior uveitis and the first supported by the presence of intraocular rubella antibodies.
