Elevated lactic acid dehydrogenase in aqueous humor in an eye without retinoblastoma.
A 14-month-old boy had a microphthalmic left eye. An anterior chamber paracentesis was performed six days after examination under anesthesia. Lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH) level in the aqueous humor was 1,158 mu and was 202 mu in the serum. The aqueous humor/serum LDH ratio was 5.73. This eye was eventually enucleated and found to have retinal dysplasia and diffuse hemorrhagic necrosis. There was no eividence of retinoblastoma. The elevated LDH level in aqueous humor was probably secondary to the ocular tissue necrosis and hemorrhage. This false-positive result emphasizes the limitation of using the aqueous humor/serum LDH ratio to distinguish eyes with retinoblastoma from those without retinoblastoma.
Solitary iris nevus associated with peripheral anterior synechiae and iris endothelialization.
Two middle-aged patients developed pigmented intrastromal iris nevi and an associated loss of the surrounding iris stromal markings suggestive of a surface iris membrane. Because of the fear of malignant melanoma with superficial growth, we excised the lesions. Histopathologic examination of the specimens revealed that the pigmented lesions were benign iris nevi and that the surrounding membrane was caused by endothelial cell growth onto the iris from peripheral anterior synechiae. These synechiae occurred anterior to Schwalbe's line in the same sector as the nevi and had been noted preoperatively at gonioscopic examination, but their diagnostic significance was not appreciated.
The cerebro-oculo-facio-skeletal syndrome.
A 3 1/2-month-old boy with the cerebro-oculo-facio-skeletal syndrome had low birth weight, microcephaly, microphthalmia, cataracts, blepharophimosis, high nasal bridge, micrognathia, kyphosis, rocker-bottom feet, and a longitudinal foot groove. The product of a consanguineous parentage, he showed marked developmental retardation, suggesting abnormal recessive inheritance.
Uniocular congenital blindness as a complication of midtrimester amniocentesis.
A 6-month-old baby girl with congenital unilateral blindness had an eyelid coloboma and clear evidence of an old vascularized corneal perforation, indicating that the cause of the blindness was an ocular trauma sustained during a midtrimester amniocentesis.
