Iridocorneal endothelial syndrome.

چکیده
A 19 years boy with a 2 years history of reduced and fluctuating vision along with change in pupillary shape and iris colour in his left eye presented to the glaucoma clinic. Ocular examination revealed distinct unilateral stretch holes, iris architecture changes and localized iris atrophy. Intraocular pressure was 16 mmHg in the right and 36 mmHg in the left eye. Gonioscopy of the left angle revealed broad based peripheral anterior synechiae at approximately 2 O'clock to 10 O'clock hours. The optic disc of the left eye had a vertical cup of 0.9 which manifest as superior and inferior arcuate scotoma. Specular microscopy showed unilateral abnormal endothelium with irregular cells of variable shape and size. To our knowledge, this is only the second reported case of iridocorneal endothelial syndrome in a male teenager.

Pseudocapsulorrhexis in a patient with iridocorneal endothelial syndrome.
We describe a patient with Chandler's syndrome variant of the iridocorneal endothelial syndrome in whom ectopic Descemet's membrane was found intraoperatively on the anterior surface of the lens. Initially, the membrane was confused with the anterior lens capsule during extracapsular cataract extraction, leading to the performance of a pseudocapsulorrhexis. Electron microscopy disclosed that th...
متن کاملBilateral iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome with microspherophakia.
Iridocorneal endothelial syndrome is described to be a rare, usually unilateral ocular condition in young females. There are three known overlapping clinical variants of this condition namely, essential iris atrophy, Cogan-Reese and Chandler syndrome. We report a case of bilateral iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome with microspherophakia. A 25 years old female presented with microspheropha...

Iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome is a primary endothelial abnormality that can cause a spectrum of iris changes, corneal edema, and glaucoma. Glaucoma secondary to ICE is difficult to manage because of the inflammatory reaction and fibrosis it can cause. We present a case of postoperative fibrinous reaction following endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation in ICE that caused aqueous tube shunt ...

CASE REPORT A 42 year-old female diagnosed with essential iris atrophy complained of visual decrease in the right eye. Examination revealed moderate corneal oedema, folds in Descemet's membrane, polycoria, corectopia, and iris atrophy. Excimer laser assisted Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty was performed, with a good corneal transparency and a significant visual improvement being obt...
متن کاملDistinguishing features of the iridocorneal endothelial syndrome and posterior polymorphous dystrophy: value of endothelial specular microscopy.
The literature suggests that posterior polymorphous dystrophy (PPD) may show features such as iridocorneal adhesions, glassy membranes, and pupillary ectropion which are typically ascribed to the iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome. This complicates diagnosis. PPD, unlike ICE, is familial, and ICE, unlike PPD, is usually progressive and frequently complicated by glaucoma: thus it is importa...
