[Histological findings in dysgenesis mesodermalis iridis et corneae Rieger].
The histological examination of an enucleated eye with dysgenesis Rieger showed microcornea, broad anterior synechia, hypoplasia and atrophia of the stroma of the iris as well as of the ciliary body. Excessive proliferations of the endothel combined with the formation of thick glass membranes allow the assumption that the dysgenesis Rieger, the essential progressive atrophy of the iris, the Chandler and Cogan-Reese syndrome are related in their aetiopathogenesis and are only variations of the same proliferative endotheliopathy.
