Clinical and histological findings are described together with the mode of distribution of the cholesterol crystals that could be traced in the anterior chamber, iris, corpus ciliare, vitreous body, retina and choroid. No crystals were found in the cornea, sclera or lens. In the patient's medical history was a trauma that had occurred 37 years before. Histologically, macrophages were visible in the iron reaction. Since these macrophages contained siderous pigment, an intraocular haemorrhage probably played an important role in the development of the crystals.
本文描述了临床和组织学检查结果，以及在前房、虹膜、睫状体、玻璃体、视网膜和脉络膜中发现的胆固醇结晶的分布模式。在角膜、巩膜或晶状体中未发现结晶。患者的病史显示37年前曾发生过一次外伤。组织学检查可见巨噬细胞呈铁反应阳性。由于这些巨噬细胞含有含铁血黄素，眼内出血可能在结晶形成过程中起了重要作用。
