Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Mutation of the human transforming growth factor beta-induced (TGFBI) gene causes granular corneal dystrophy (GCD) in various ethnic groups. In this report, we identify the genetic defect on the TGFBI gene in a Vietnamese family with atypical GCD . CASES: The patient and her relatives were examined clinically. Genomic DNA was extracted from blood leukocytes. Fifty normal Vietnamese were used as...
