[Fuchs's heterochromic cyclitis in Moebius' syndrome (author's transl)]. 1981

A Huber, and E Kraus-Mackiw

In a 16-year-old boy with congenital bilateral paralysis of the sixth cranial nerve and unilateral paralysis of the seventh nerve (on the right) heterochromia of the right eye was observed, characterized by a lighter color of the iris, precipitates on Descemet's membrane and absence of synechiae. The development of Fuch's heterochromic cyclitis in combination with Moebius' syndrome is discussed in connection with possible pathogenic factors, in particular immunopathologic processes which may contribute to an understanding of the origin and progression of the disease.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007249	Inflammation	A pathological process characterized by injury or destruction of tissues caused by a variety of cytologic and chemical reactions. It is usually manifested by typical signs of pain, heat, redness, swelling, and loss of function.	Innate Inflammatory Response,Inflammations,Inflammatory Response, Innate,Innate Inflammatory Responses
D007499	Iris Diseases	Diseases, dysfunctions, or disorders of or located in the iris.	Disease, Iris,Diseases, Iris,Iris Disease
D008297	Male		Males
D004576	Electromyography	Recording of the changes in electric potential of muscle by means of surface or needle electrodes.	Electromyogram,Surface Electromyography,Electromyograms,Electromyographies,Electromyographies, Surface,Electromyography, Surface,Surface Electromyographies
D005146	Facial Asymmetry	Congenital or acquired asymmetry of the face.	Asymmetries, Facial,Asymmetry, Facial,Facial Asymmetries
D005158	Facial Paralysis	Severe or complete loss of facial muscle motor function. This condition may result from central or peripheral lesions. Damage to CNS motor pathways from the cerebral cortex to the facial nuclei in the pons leads to facial weakness that generally spares the forehead muscles. FACIAL NERVE DISEASES generally results in generalized hemifacial weakness. NEUROMUSCULAR JUNCTION DISEASES and MUSCULAR DISEASES may also cause facial paralysis or paresis.

D013285	Strabismus	Misalignment of the visual axes of the eyes. In comitant strabismus the degree of ocular misalignment does not vary with the direction of gaze. In noncomitant strabismus the degree of misalignment varies depending on direction of gaze or which eye is fixating on the target.
