Abstract

A 33 year-old girl admitted for eye examination for her usual check-up. During her left eye examination, a slight elevation in peripheral iris associated with pigmentary changes at 3 o’clock quadrant was noticed. Although further studies involving Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showed no pathology, Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) was successfull defining multiple C. ciliaris cyst. Ciliary body visualization is difficult with slit-lamb biomicroscopy. Iridociliary cysts are extremely common, usually asymptomatic and usually clinically undetectable during slit-lamb exam. Some subtle ciliary body pathologic conditions can be easily overlooked. Iridociliary cysts may result with angle closure glaucoma. MRI is usually inefficient to detect these pathologies.UBM should be considered a potentially helpful diagnostic adjunct defining anterior segment pathologies.

Özet

Otuzüç yaşında bir bayan hasta rutin göz muayenesi isteği ile polikliniğimize başvurdu. Hastanın biyomikroskopi ile muayenesinde sol gözde saat 3 kadranında periferal iriste hafif kabarıklık ve düşük miktarda pigment değişikliği izlendi. İleri tetkiklerde magnetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRG) ile saptanamayan, ancak ultrason biyomikroskopi (UBM) ile tanımlanabilen siliyer cisimde multipl kistler saptandı. Siliyer cisim, biyomikroskopik yöntem ile görüntülenmesi güç bir anatomik bölgedir. Bu bölgede iris ve siliyer cisim kistleri esasen çok sık görülmekle birlikte, semptom oluşturmamaları ve biyomikroskopide saptanamamaları nedeni ile gözden kaçabilmektedirler. Multipl kistlerin açı kapanma glokomuna neden olma riskleri mevcuttur. MRG ile bu kistler çoğu kez tanımlanamamaktadırlar. UBM ön segment patolojilerini tanımlamada oldukça yardımcı bir tanı yöntemdir.
