螢光像よりみた小血管瘤の基本的形態とその臨床的意義について

Fundamental Pictures in the Fluorescein Angiography of the Diabetic Microaneurysm

　糖尿病性網膜症（以下単に網膜症と略）における小血管瘤の基本的形態を螢光像の面から検討し，あわせて，その経過観察から興味ある成績を得たので，ここに報告したいと思う。

This study is concerned with the shapes of the dye in the diabetic microaneurysm observed by fluorescence angiography. The relationshipbetween the capillaries and microaneurysms was studied by means of partially enlarged fundus photographs. Results were as follows : 1. Most of the microaneurysms are connected to the capillaries. Outpouching of capillary wall is saccular in shape. 2. In some cases microaneu-rysms are present at the blind end of the capi-llaries like a pinhead.
