Retinitis pigmentosa in southern Africa.

Clinical genetics - 1 Nov 1993

Greenberg J, Bartmann L, Ramesar R, Beighton P

Abstract excerpt

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a heterogeneous group of inherited retinal disorders which are a common cause of genetic blindness. The relative frequencies of the different forms of RP in South Africa, as determined from the register at the DNA banking centre for RP at the Department of Human Genetics, University of Cape Town, are presented and discussed. Of the 125 families analysed, 29 (23%) showed autosomal...
