Individual phenotypic variances in a family with Avellino corneal dystrophy
BACKGROUND Avellino corneal dystrophy (ACD) is an autosomal dominant disorder, characterized by the presence of deposits in the anterior stroma, and results from a specific mutation (R124H) in the transforming growth factor beta-induced gene (TGFBI). This report presents corneal dystrophy of the Bowman layer as a rare phenotypic appearance of ACD and a high intra-familial variability of phenoty...
متن کاملSands of Sahara after LASIK in Avellino Corneal Dystrophy
We report the case of a patient diagnosed with Avellino corneal dystrophy (ACD) who developed diffuse interstitial keratitis following excimer laser insitu keratomileusis (LASIK). ACD is an autosomal dominant corneal dystrophy characterized by multiple asymmetric stromal opacities that impair vision. Accepted treatments for this condition include corneal transplantation and phototherapeutic ker...
متن کاملAn Arg124His mutation in TGFBI associated to Avellino corneal dystrophy in a Chinese pedigree
PURPOSE To identify the gene mutation underlying Avellino corneal dystrophy in a four-generation Chinese pedigree. METHODS Patients from the affected family underwent detailed clinical examination involving slit-lamp photography and confocal microscopy. Genomic DNA extracted from peripheral leukocytes was amplified using touch-down PCR for gene scanning. Two-point linkage analysis and haploty...
متن کاملCorneal electrolysis for recurrence of corneal stromal dystrophy after keratoplasty.
AIMS To evaluate corneal electrolysis as a treatment for recurrent diffuse corneal opacities at the host-graft interface of the stroma or at the subepithelial region in two types of granular corneal dystrophy (GCD). METHODS Recurrence developed at the host-graft interface of the stroma after lamellar keratoplasty in a patient with Avellino corneal dystrophy (ACD). At surgery, the deep aspect ...
متن کاملSCIENTIFIC REPORT A clinical, histopathological, and genetic study of Avellino corneal dystrophy in British families
Aims: To establish a clinical, histopathological, and genetic diagnosis in two unrelated British families with Avellino corneal dystrophy (ACD). Methods: Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood leucocytes of all members participating in the study. Exons 4 and 12 of the human transforming growth factor β induced (BIGH3) gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction. The mutation and p...
