M. Mckibbin et al., INHERITED RETINAL TELANGIECTASIA WITH GLIAL PROLIFERATION, Journal of pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus, 35(4), 1998, pp. 209-215
We describe five patients from a family of Pakistani origin with inher
ited retinal telangiectasia and glial proliferation. Characteristics o
f this condition include: variable visual loss; peripapillary retinal
telangiectasia with vascular incompetence on fluorescein angiography;
glial proliferation; cystoid macular edema or altered macular pigment;
retinal hemorrhage; and abnormal electroretinopathy. We discuss the s
imilarities with and distinguishing features from other documented con
ditions and the mode of inheritance.
