Hereditary corneal dystrophy in the Manx cat: a preliminary report.
A progressive, apparently inherited corneal dystrophy is described in an inbred line of Manx cats. Initial changes in the cornea are seen at four months of age and characterized by anterior stromal edema. Progressive worsening of the condition produces severe bullous keratopathy with eventual breakdown of both epithelium and stroma. Light microscopic and ultrastructural studies in the advanced ...

METHODS Histologic, immunohistochemical and biochemical studies were performed on corneal tissue samples obtained after perforating keratoplasty. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes.

متن کاملFamilial Corneal Dystrophy.
The dystrophy is of the nodular or granular type (Duke-Elder, 1938; Francheschetti, Klein, Form.i, and Babel, 1951; Franceschetti, 1954). The cases would appear to fall into the classification of heredo-familial degenerations under the heading of parenchymatous degenerations-a dominant form of granular degeneration. The youngest patient reported by Francheschetti was 5 years old, but in the lat...
متن کاملPre-descemetic corneal dystrophy.
Maeder and Datiis (1947) described a 40-year-old woman with small white curved filaments occupying a disc in the deepest layers of the corneal stroma. The peripheral 2 mm. of cornea remained unaffected. The corneae of this patient showed keratoconus, clinically manifest in the left eye with a forme fruste in the right. D'Ermo (1950) annotated a similar case in a 19-year-old girl who was also af...
