Abstract
HLA A, B, and C antigens were studied in 25 patients with ankylosing hyperostosis. There was no evidence of an increased frequency of any antigen in association with the condition itself. However, a high frequency of several antigens was found, reflecting the predominance of Jewish patients in the series.Keywords
