Iridoschisis bilatérale isolé

چکیده
L’iridoschisis est une pathologie dégénérative rare au cours de laquelle le stroma irien antérieur se clive spontanément du feuillet postérieur. Le feuillet antérieur se dissocie alors en fibrilles flottant dans l’humeur aqueuse. Nous rapportons le cas d’une patiente de 70 ans, consulta pour une baisse d’acuité visuelle progressive et chez qui l’examen biomicroscopique a pu mettre évidence une cataracte sénile évolutive avec un iridoschisis bilatérale isolé. Les causes fréquentes d’atrophie irienne acquises (herpès, dispersion pigmentaire, traumatisme...) sont éliminées. Au cours du suivi, l’atrophie évolue avec multiplication des foyers d’atrophie de deux coté. Le tonus oculaire et le champ visuel restaient normaux. Le diagnostic de cette entité est important puisque son association fréquente au glaucome en impose son dépistage dans le même temps et suivi à long terme.

Iridoschisis: case report and review of the literature
Iridoschisis is a rare condition that consists of the separation of the anterior mesodermic layer of the iris. In more than two-thirds of cases it is associated with glaucoma. We report the case of an 80-year-old patient who had bilateral iridoschisis and presented with acute angle-closure glaucoma. The patient was free from a history of ocular trauma or of heritable ocular disease. Chronic ope...
متن کاملIridoschisis: a case report and literature review
BACKGROUND Iridoschisis is a rare condition that is characterized by the separation of the iris stroma into layers, with portions of the anterior layer floating freely in the aqueous humour. Here, we report three cases of iridoschisis that were complicated by either a cataract or glaucoma. Based on these cases, we speculate that the scope of iridoschisis has a rare association with intraocular ...

Purpose: To demonstrate an approach to the problems of cataract surgery in extensive iridoschisis Methods: Four eyes of 2 patients with extensive iridoschisis had cataract surgery by the same surgeon using the techniques that resembled techniques for phacoemulsification in intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS). We used low flow parameters on phacoemulsification, used super-cohesive ophthal...
