Results concerning the asymptotic behavior near infinity of solutions of the minimal surface equation in two space dimensions are generalised to more general nonlinear equations of the form \[ \sum^2_{i,j= 1}a_{ij}(\cdot, u,\nabla u)u_{x_ix_j} =0\quad \text{in }\Omega \] under Dirichlet boundary conditions. Here \(\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2\) is an exterior domain. The problem is nonuniformly elliptic in the sense of the minimal surface equation. Under suitable assumptions and normalisations the author proves asymptotic expansions for \(u(x)\), \(\nabla u(x)\), \(D^2u(x)\) as \(|x|\to\infty\), existence and/or uniqueness of classical solutions.
