[Adenoma of the pigmented epithelium of the iris with endothelialization and descemetization in the horse].

The authors describe peculiar tumors with brown-white piebald anterior surface, which had grown bilaterally from the corpora nigra (C.N.) of an adult horse and occluded the pupils. The surgical procedure for removing the larger tumor and the postoperative treatment are described. The findings by light and electron microscopy suggest that the tumor represent a so-called adenoma of the iris pigment epithelium. The white patches on its surface consist of newly formed Descemet-like material produced by displaced corneal endothelial cells, which have probably grown on the tumor after contact with the posterior face of the cornea.

[Findings on retinal surface by scanning electron microscopy. II. Vitreous detachment (author's transl)].

The authors describe their findings by scanning electron microscopy of the surface of the retina following secondary and primary senile posterior vitreous detachment. These findings are correlated with those of transmission electron microscopy. Extended nets formed by vitreous fibrils can be found on the retinal surface. The fibrils form a continuous feltwork, which cannot be traced by biomicroscopy or dissection of enucleated globes. This feltwork desintegrates in places or over a wide area and the basal membrane of the Müller cells becomes exposed. Structural differences in consequence of the two examination techniques well as possible artifacts are shown.

[Findings on retinal surface by scanning electron microscopy. III. Epivascular glial clusters (author's transl)].

The findings by scanning and transmission electron microscopy of multiple glial excrescences from the retina into the cortical vitreous body are described. These formations are located in lines above superficial retinal vessels. The findings are compared with those from light microscopy of similar formations. The pathogenesis and the possible significance as retinovitreal attachments for rhegmatogenous defects of the retina and for posterior vitreous detachments are discussed.
