[Chandler's basal iridectomy. Our observations on surgical indications, technic and value]. 1989

I Horge, and D Nicula, and M Cherteş

Basal iridectomy is a pupillary bypass having a prophylactic role, when made on an eye with potential glaucoma, and a curative role when performed on an eye with primary narrow angle glaucoma in the reversible stage of the disease. The authors present their experience on 37 eyes, using Charleux-Etienne's technique that, compared with Chandler's technique is more advantageous: the limb remains intact for a possible future operation, it is simple, rapid, without risks, efficient and elegant.

D007498	Iris	The most anterior portion of the uveal layer, separating the anterior chamber from the posterior. It consists of two layers - the stroma and the pigmented epithelium. Color of the iris depends on the amount of melanin in the stroma on reflection from the pigmented epithelium.

D011183	Postoperative Complications	Pathologic processes that affect patients after a surgical procedure. They may or may not be related to the disease for which the surgery was done, and they may or may not be direct results of the surgery.

D015812	Glaucoma, Angle-Closure	A form of glaucoma in which the intraocular pressure increases because the angle of the anterior chamber is blocked and the aqueous humor cannot drain from the anterior chamber.
