Resumo

The Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome (VKH) is a bilateral, diffuse granulomatous uveitis associated with poliosis, vitiligo, alopecia, and central nervous system and auditory signs. This inflammatory syndrome is probably the result of an autoimmune mechanism, influenced by genetic factors, and appears to be directed against melanocytes. In the paper is presented a rare case of probably VHK disease in 12-year old caucasian race boy.
