[Fluoroangiography of various pathological pictures in unusual observations of the anterior segment]. / La fluorangiografia di alcuni quadri patologici di insolita osservazione del segmento anteriore.

ABSTRACT

Fluorangiography is a very important investigation in order to have a differential diagnosis in all pathological pattern of the conjunctiva of scleral corneal limbus of the sclera of the iris of the ciliary-body. We have in the literature two different patterns A) Fluorescein negative pattern (cystic neoformations, benign tumors with or without pigment) B) Fluorescein positive pattern (inflammatory pseudotumors, malignant tumors). Authors agree more or less with this classification; they have, moreover, worked out some variations. In our case of a localised carcinoma, fluorescein positive, we did not observe less of fluorescein; in the iris melanoma, even this fluorescein positive, in all observed cases has shown only a small loss of fluorescein near his edges. In the other cases as in the leiomyoma and cystis we agree with the literature even with prudence.
