H. Huismans, FAMILIAL ADENOMATOUS POLYPOSIS (FAP) FROM OPHTHALMOLOGICAL VIEW OF POINT, Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde, 200(3), 1992, pp. 213-218
Familial adenomatous polyposis is dominant autosomal heritable and pre
-cancerous. Characteristic changes of ocular fundus, multiple and bila
teral retinal dysplasias, permit diagnosis in presymptomatic stage, si
gnificant especially not at least for sporadic cases of polyposis rect
i and coli, which are 40 per-cent of all. Contrary to often wellknown
risk-families this group can't be realized epidemiologically, but comp
lications are the same.
