[Iris angiography and endothelium microscopy in dysgenesis mesodermalis iridis et corneae].
Three patients with endothelialization of the anterior chamber - 2 with Chandler's syndrome and 1 with Cogan-Reese syndrome - were followed up by means of iris angiography and specular microscopy over a period of several years. The endothelial angiographic changes occurred simultaneously in all cases; the more pronounced the endothelial changes, the more severe the iris changes. Since iris stroma and corneal endothelium develop from a common mesenchymal origin, and the extent of the changes they undergo is similar in the course of the diseases in question, a close relationship between Rieger's mesodermal dysgenesis, Chandler's syndrome and Cogan-Reese syndrome is postulated.
