Medical condition
Iridogoniodysgenesis, dominant type
Iridogoniodysgenesis, dominant type is inherited via autosomal dominant manner
Iridogoniodysgenesis, dominant type (type 1, IRID1) refers to a spectrum of diseases characterized by malformations of the irido-corneal angle of the anterior chamber of the eye. Iridogoniodysgenesis is the result of abnormal migration or terminal induction of neural crest cells. These cells lead to formation of most of the anterior segment structures of the eye (corneal stroma & endothelium, iris stroma, trabeculum).
This is transmitted through an autosomal dominant pattern with complete penetrance and variable expressivity.
