title: Spontaneous hyphaema from persistent remnant of the pupillary membrane. A case report.
abstract: A spontaneous unilateral hyphaema in a 75-year-old woman, due to bleeding from iris vessels, a remnant of the pupillary membrane, was observed. Hyphaema was completely resorbed after 24 h. Fluorescein angiography showed the presence of a blood circulation in the anomalous vessels and a diffusion of fluorescein from saccular dilatations on the inferior vessel.
