Posterior Polymorphous Corneal Dystrophy in Czech Families Maps to Chromosome 20 and Excludes the<i>VSX1</i>Gene

22 Nov 2005

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD) is an autosomal dominant disorder, affecting both the corneal endothelium and Descemet's membrane. In the Czech Republic, PPCD is one of the most prevalent corneal dystrophies. The purpose of this study was to determine the chromosomal locus of PPCD in two large Czech families, by using linkage analysis. METHODS: Linkage analysis was performed on 52 members...
