[Control of the course of iris tumors with the aid of fluorescence angiography].

Abstract

The clinical and fluorescence-angiographical control findings of 79 iris tumours are reported. According to the angiographical pattern, these tumours could be divided into three distinct types which correlated to the histopathological findings, if available. Thus, a type I tumour tends to run a benign course; type II we regard as potentially malignant and type III as definitely malignant. Furthermore, an increase in tumour size can be more exactly determined by iris angiographical controls than by other methods of documentation.
