Congential fibrosis of the extraocular muscles type I (CFEOM1) on the Arabian Peninsula.

Ophthalmic genetics - 1 Mar 2008

Khan Arif O, Khalil Dania S, Al-Tassan Nada A

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To assess for KIF21A mutation in the first two reported Saudi Arabian families with the classic phenotype of congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles type I (CFEOM1). METHODS: Clinical examination and genetic testing by amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) assay for KIF21A R954W, the most common KIF21A mutation worldwide. RESULTS: Clinical examination was consistent with classic CFEOM1...
