Abstract excerpt
Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) is a bilateral, clinically and genetically heterogeneous hereditary eye disorder that affects both the retina and the vitreous body. The condition has a high degree of penetrance and variable expressivity. In some cases of autosomal dominant FEVR (AD FEVR), mutations in the frizzled-4 gene (FZD-4) have been shown to be involved in FEVR pathology. In this study, we...
