Infantile choroidoretinal degeneration with cerebral symptoms.

Ophthalmoscopic Examination.-This was carried out under general anaesthesia on March 20, 1948, when the appearances in the right eye were as shown in the Figure. Large areas of choroido-retinal degeneration were scattered over both fundi, the macular area being severely involved. The degenerative areas were gyrate in shape and there were irregular patches of pigment scattered throughout the fundi. Both optic disks were somewhat pale and the retinal arteries narrow. The Wassermann reaction was negative.
