[The clinico-echographic agreements and disagreements in oculo-orbital lesions. The feasibility of the examination methods]. / Concordante si discordante clinico-ecografice în afectiuni oculo-orbitoare. Fiabilitatea unei metode de examinare.

The authors present a study made in the period November 1987-1989 on 108 subjects examined clinically echographic and also with some other investigation methods (radiology, laboratory with radio-tracers). There are presented the results obtained on structures of pathology (strokes, primary or metastatic intraocular tumours, medical diseases of the ocular globe). The concordance and disagreement between the results obtained using the investigation with ultrasounds and the clinical investigation completed with some other investigation methods is expressed in the level of fiability of the echographic method (on structures of diseases and generally). The confirmations are justified by: the intraoperative diagnosis, the postoperative evolution, the therapeutical test and also by the histopathological exam in the cases in which this was affected.

[Chandler's basal iridectomy. Our observations on surgical indications, technic and value]. / Iridectomia bazala Chandler. Observatiile noastre privind indicatiile, tehnica si valoarea operatiei.

Basal iridectomy is a pupillary bypass having a prophylactic role, when made on an eye with potential glaucoma, and a curative role when performed on an eye with primary narrow angle glaucoma in the reversible stage of the disease. The authors present their experience on 37 eyes, using Charleux-Etienne's technique that, compared with Chandler's technique is more advantageous: the limb remains intact for a possible future operation, it is simple, rapid, without risks, efficient and elegant.
