A case of senile scleral plaques is reported in which expulsion of a calcified plaque anterior to the insertion of the medial horizontal rectus muscle gave rise to senile scleromalacia. Histopathological examination revealed a second calcified plaque at the site of the contralateral senile scleral plaque in this eye. This case indicates that senile scleromalacia is a scleral disease sui generis which occurs by expulsion of a calcified plaque in advanced cases of senile scleral plaques. Senile scleromalacia has not previously been described as a clinical entity.
报告了一例老年巩膜斑块病例，其中内侧水平直肌附着点前方的钙化斑块脱出导致了老年巩膜软化症。组织病理学检查显示该眼对侧老年巩膜斑块部位存在第二个钙化斑块。该病例表明老年巩膜软化症是一种独特的巩膜疾病，在老年巩膜斑块晚期病例中由钙化斑块脱出引起。老年巩膜软化症此前尚未被描述为一种临床实体。
