“…Histopathologic findings of Peters anomaly reported previously with systemic disease (Peters plus syndrome) have described an open angle covered with dense iris processes over the trabecular meshwork and suggested that the mechanism of glaucoma might be developmental. [6][7][8] The pathologic findings of the angle structures in this case were consistent with that reported in severe developmental glaucoma, illustrating that angle malformation may be the cause of glaucoma in some of these patients. The absence of Schlemm's canal, not reported previously in association with Peters anomaly, may suggest that angle procedures, such as goniotomy or trabeculotomy, may not be effective in treating glaucoma in these patients.…”

“…A major advance has been the concept of incising the whole angle (circumferential trabeculotomy) with either suture [11][12][13][14] or microcatheter. 15,16 With surgical destruction of the Schlemm's canal and potential severe angle maldevelopment involving Schlemm's canal, 19,[25][26][27] the microcatheter could not pass 360°. Therefore, it would be encountered in eyes with previous angle surgeries frequently and even in eyes without previous angle surgeries.…”

“…It has been hypothesized that mutations of CYP1B1 cause developmental abnormality in the structure and function of the anterior ocular segment. 25 However, NTG patients have statistically normal IOP with no abnormality in the structure of anterior ocular segment, suggesting that CYP1B1 is a potential disease susceptibility gene of PCG, POAG, and JOAG, but not NTG. On the other hand, we found a weak association between two adjacent markers, D2S0416i and D2S0425i, and NTG, although this link did not reach statistical signifi cance when corrected.…”
