[Diagnosis of intraocular tumors: phosphorus 32 test].

The 32P test occupies an interesting place among the methods used in the diagnosis of intraocular tumours. It must, however, be reserved for certain situations only, and carried out under clearly defined conditions. The authors outline the indications and modalities of this test, and report the results obtained at the clinic of ophthalmology of Lausanne where it has been in use over the last 10 years.

[Persistence and hyperplasia of the primary vitreous body].

Persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous is a disease whose spectrum has continued to widen throughout the years; in fact, it probably comprises a number of nosological entities considered as isolated symptoms until today. Our study has shown that the disease can be congenital and affect both eyes in the same individual. The possibility of an etiopathogenic connection with retrolental fibroplasia cannot be excluded.

[Fluorescein angiography of anterior segment of the eye (author's transl)].

This method can supply an unreplaceable iconographic document in order to follow the course of illness. A certain distinction between tumoral and nontumoral lesions is not possible. But this method is useful in the treatment of vascularized leucoma because it shows us the exact locus where the laser must be applied before the corneal graft is made.

[Genetics and idiopathic retinal detachment].

Study of all patients treated for retinal deteachment at the University Eye Clinic Lausanne from 1960-1971. All secondary detachments as well as 128 purely traumatic, 120 aphakic detachments and juvenile retinoschisis are not included in these statistics. Therefore there remain 802 patients with idiopathic detachments. A family occurrence is recorded in 7,6% of these cases. Bilateral detachment is observed in 25%. If one counts the controlateral degenerescence of the retina, bilaterality ascends to 42%. The disease occurs at an earlier age in cases with a family background. All these factors allow to appreciate the importance of heredity together with even more important peristatic factors. In 24% of cases, high myopia is associated with detachment. In this instance the heredity of detachment identifies itself with the heridity of myopia. This would be due to an autosomal monofactorial gene with variable penetration. Nevertheless in most cases, the detachment occurs independently of myopia. For the few hereditary cases (3,7%) the detachment or its predisposition would be due to a different gene, but also to a monofactorial autosomal dominant gene with variable and lower penetration, reaching even recessivity, acting together with peristatic often preponderant factors. Several pedigrees of high myopia as well as isolated retinal detachment are presented. Statistics beginning in 1960 do not allow any conclusion on Favre' or Wagner's diseases.
