Abstract. Purpose:To report the correlation between recurrence of uveitis after cataract surgery and antibody titer to lipoarabinomannan-B(LAM-B)in patients with Hansen disease. Cases and Method:This study was made on 16 eyes of 13 patients who received surgery during 17 months through July 1995 by a single surgeon. They were followed up for 5 years or longer. They were negative for bacterial of Hansen's disease over 10 years. They were checked for LAM-B before cataract surgery. Results:Anterior uveitis recurred in 6 eyes of 5 patients. Anti-LAM-B IgG and IgM were both positive in 5 eyes of 4 patients. These antibody titers negative in 10 eyes of 8 cases who showed no recurrence of uveitis. Conclusion:There is a high risk of recurrence of uveitis after cataract surgery in cases of Hansen's disease with elevated anti-LAM-B IgG and IgM.
