Ocular pathology—Macroscopically, the right eye measured 10 x 10 x 10 mm with a semi-clear cornea measuring 2 x 2. S mm. On the posterior lat eral aspect of the globe was 13 x 13 mm cystic structure (Fig. 2). The horizontally opened eye showed a hypoplastic iris and a non attached retina. In the posterior polar area, a dehiscence in the sciera and the choroid permitted the interior of the eye to communicate with the lumen of the cystic structure. The retina extended through the dehis cence. The inner wall of the cyst was smoothly rip pled and shiny with spotty areas of pigmentation. Microscopically, the angle of the anterior cham ber showed an immature configuration with inser tion of the meridional muscles of the ciliary body into a poorly developed trabecular meshwork. Schlemm's canal could not be identified. The hypoplastic iris showed a rudimentary sphincter muscle, no recognizable dilator muscle and moderate hyperplasia of its pigment epithelium. The ciliary body contained hypoplastic processes and a small coloboma of the pigment epithelium in the anterior por tion of the pars plana on one side. Tiny blood ves sels completely surrounded the lens. The capsular epithelium had migrated posteriorly and the lens cortex was degenerated anteriorly and posteriorly. The peripheral retina was thrown into folds behind the lens and showed numerous tubular or rosette formations and immature cells (Fig. 3). Posteri orly, a cystic structure protruded through a large coloboma of the retinal pigment epithelium, the cho roid and sciera. A single layer of epithelium, pigmented in some areas, lined the cyst. Immature ret ina extended into the anterior portion of the cyst. On one side of the coloboma within the choroid, bundles of smooth muscles were seen (Fig. 4). Adjacent to the coloboma anteriorly was an intrascleral plaque of cartilage (Fig. S). Pathology of the right eye included hypoplasia of the iris, immature anterior chamber angle, per sistent tunica vasculosa lentis, cataract, coloboma of the choroid and sciera and of the retinal and cili ary body pigment epithelium, retinal dysplasia, ret inal nonattachment, intraocular smooth muscle and cartilage, microphthalmos with cyst. Macroscopically, the small left eye measured 9 x 8 x 7 mm with a semi-clear cornea measuring 1 x lS mm. On the posterior lateral aspect of the globe was a 6 x S mm cystic structure (Fig. 6). The horizontally opened eye showed a hypoplastic iris and a non-attached retina. In the posterior polar re gion there was a dehiscence in the sciera and the choroid so that the interior of the eye communi cated with the lumen of the cyst. The inner wall of the cyst was smoothly rippled and shiny but with no evidence of pigment.
