[Corneal lesions in ichthyosis].

Corneal lesions in ichthyosis, here combined with alopecia, are rarely described in the literature. The present observation relates to two sisters, whose grandparents were siblings. The mode of inheritance is autosomal recessive, as is usual in ichthyosis congenita but is also observed in ichthyosis vulgaris. The clinical picture and the histological findings correspond to ichthyosis vulgaris.

[Clinical and histological results of lyell-syndrome (author's transl)].

The Lyell-syndrome and the importance to ophthalmology is demonstrated. The nosological position - as staphylococcal disease (almost only in childhood) and as allergic extreme variant of bullous mucocutaneous disease is described. The differential diagnosis of similar (identical?) syndromes is discussed: Fuchs-syndrome, Baader-syndrome, Fiessinger-Rendu-syndrome. About 15 personal patients and 40 in the literature with LS with participation of the eyes is reported. The clinical results, development of the disease and the histological pictures of the cornea are made for the first time discussed. The therapy by lamellar or penetrating keratoplasty is reported.

[Corneal lesions in ichthyosis (author's transl)].

The authors report about observations they made in two sisters. One sister showed a fibroid degeneration of the cornea, the other a band-shaped keratopathy respectively, together with an ichthyosis and an alopecia as a result of capillary fractures due to pili torti. An autosomal recessive hereditary transmission could be determined. The cutaneous lesion is either an ichthyosis vulgaris, the hereditary transmission of which could not yet be confirmed, or it is a transition form of ichthyosis vulgaris and congenita.

[Clinical considerations and genetics of the lattice dystrophy of the cornea].

Lattice dystrophy of the cornea is reported in 4 families. For purposes of linkage analysis we did serological tests on pertinent family members, including marker testing of the blood group systems ABO, MNSs, Rh, K, Ky, and P; protein group systems Hp, Ge, Gm, and Inv; and enzyme polymorphisms SEP, PGM, ADA, and AK.

[Results of perforating keratoplasty in hereditary corneal diseases (author's transl)].

Operation results of keratoplasty in 50 eyes having keratoconus are presented and discusses. Furthermore a report is made on keratoplasty in cases of keratotorus in reticulate, maculate, and granulate dystrophies as well as in congenital ichthyosis with corneal involvement. The prognosis and complications of this intervention are presented.
