In a patient with the clinical features of the iris nevus syndrome who was treated for glaucoma a cataract developed later. The sector of iris removed during cataract extraction was examined by electron microscopy and was found to be covered by ectopic corneal endothelium with an underlying atypical Descemet's membrane. Abnormalities in the iris included aggregates of melanophagic cells in the anterior stroma and fibrosis in relation to the ectopic endothelium. These findings suggest that many of the iris abnormalities seen in this disorder occur on a reactive basis.
在一名接受青光眼治疗、具有虹膜痣综合征临床特征的患者中,后来出现了白内障。对白内障摘除术中切除的虹膜扇形部分进行电子显微镜检查,发现其表面覆盖有异位角膜内皮细胞,其下方为非典型的后弹力层。虹膜的异常包括前基质中噬黑素细胞聚集以及与异位内皮相关的纤维化。这些发现表明,在这种疾病中所见的许多虹膜异常是基于反应性发生的。
