Autosomal recessive Stargardt disease (STGD) has been associated with substantial genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. By systematic clinical analyses of STGD patients with complete genetic data (i.e. identified mutations on both alleles of the ABCA4 gene), we set out to determine phenotypic subtypes and to correlate these with specific ABCA4 alleles. Twenty-eight patients from 18 families with STGD/fundus...
