Spontaneous iris stromal cyst: a case report and review of literature

R Yung et al. Ann Ophthalmol. 1992 Apr.

Abstract

Spontaneous iris stromal cysts are rare and usually are identified early in life. They resemble implantation iris cysts after nonsurgical and surgical trauma; both have an epithelium which usually is conjunctival in nature. However, in spontaneous iris stromal cysts, no ocular trauma history is found. We present a case report and review of literature.
