Spontaneous collapse of an iris stromal cyst in a young child.
Journal of AAPOS : the Official Publication of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus 2024 April 7
A 4-month-old girl was referred for evaluation of an anterior chamber cyst in the left eye. Examination under anesthesia (EUA) revealed a large iris stromal cyst in the anterior chamber involving the angle and the pupillary border, with touch of the corneal endothelium and anterior lens capsule. Intraocular pressure was normal. There was no anisometropic refractive error by retinoscopy. Close observation with amblyopia management was recommended as the pupil was only partially occluded by the cyst, and there was a clear red reflex around the cyst. Repeat EUA 6 months following diagnosis showed spontaneous collapse of the cyst. There was no recurrence noted at her most recent follow-up, 2 years after presentation, and most of the pupillary axis remains unobstructed by the cyst. The patient continues to be followed to monitor for possible cyst progression, anisometropia, and development of amblyopia. Though rare, spontaneous resolution of an iris stromal cyst may occur and thus, observation may be considered, particularly if the cyst is not causing anterior segment complications or obstruction of the visual axis.
