Stargardt's hereditary progressive macular degeneration.
In a series of three papers, Stargardt ( 1909,I93, I9I6) described with precision and thoroughness a form of hereditary macular degeneration which has become known as Stargardt's disease. The purposes of the present paper are to review Stargardt's original observations, to argue that Stargardt's disease and fundus flavimaculatus with atrophic macular degeneration are identical, and to present a...
متن کاملRapidly Progressive Corticobasal Degeneration Syndrome
INTRODUCTION Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) has a heterogeneous clinical presentation with no specific pathologic substratum. Its accurate diagnosis is a challenge for neurologists; in order to establish CBS definitively, postmortem confirmation is required. Some clinical and radiological features can help to distinguish it from other neurodegenerative conditions, such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease...
متن کاملProgressive medullary failure associated with neurofibrillary degeneration.
A clinicopathological report is presented of a British male, aged 59 years, who died after an illness of 10 years, manifested by progressive respiratory failure, ptosis, and dysphagia. At no time was there evidence of ophthalmoplegia, Parkinsonism or dementia. At necropsy the main finding was of neurofibrillary tangles in the neurons of the pontine and medullary reticular formation, with partic...
متن کاملProgressive retinal degeneration in ranch mink.
Retinal degeneration was prevalent in a large group of sapphire and pastel mink (Mustela vison) kept for studies on slow viral diseases. Nearly 78% of those two to eight years old were affected. The retinopathy was equally common in both sexes but more frequent in sapphires (85%) than in pastels (63%), and it was severe more often in sapphires than in pastels. By light microscopy, the primary c...
متن کاملConserved Gene Involved in Progressive Neural Degeneration
Model organisms such as Drosophila are receiving increased attention for studies of human neurodegenerative disease. Although the merit of such systems for genetic studies is apparent, the relevance of a neurodegenerative phenotype in flies, whose lifespan is measured in weeks, to the long duration of human neurodegenerative diseases would seem less clear. However, two articles in this issue of...
