Clinical outcome of eight BIGH3-linked corneal dystrophies.

Ophthalmology - 1 Apr 2002

Ellies Pierre, Renard Gilles, Valleix Sophie, Boelle Pierre Yves, Dighiero Paul

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the mutational pattern of BIGH3-linked corneal dystrophies (CDs) can accurately predict the clinical course of the disease and be helpful in planning adequate surgical treatment. DESIGN: Retrospective noncomparative case series. PARTICIPANTS: Chart review of 73 patients (110 eyes) with recently confirmed BIGH3 mutations who underwent a penetrating keratoplasty (PK) from 1978...
