چکیده

Manuscript received: 29.04.17; Revision accepted: 30.05.17 Dominant cystoid macular dystrophy (DCMD) is a rare inherited retinal disorder. It primarily affects the macula. It is a unique retinal dystrophy because the appearance of cystic spaces in the macula heralds its onset with the rest of the retina being essentially normal.[1] Herein, we describe multimodal imaging findings in a case of DCMD.

Acetazolamide for Cystoid Macular Oedema in Bietti Crystalline Retinal Dystrophy

Bietti crystalline retinal dystrophy is a rare, inherited disorder whose hallmark is the presence of retinal crystal deposits associated with later chorioretinal degeneration. This condition may rarely be complicated by the development of cystoid macular oedema leading to rapid visual decline. Currently, treatment options for this complication of Bietti dystrophy are limited and the visual prog...

Genomic structure and assessment of the retinally expressed RFamide-related peptide gene in dominant cystoid macular dystrophy.

PURPOSE Computer-assisted sampling of EST data contained within the UniGene human sequences collection is being used to establish a catalog of novel genes that are expressed exclusively or predominantly in the human retina. This provides a valuable source for candidate genes possibly involved in retinal degeneration. In this report we present the characterization of the C7orf9 gene locus encodi...

The effect of oral acetazolamide on cystoid macular edema in hydroxychloroquine retinopathy: a case report

BACKGROUND Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) retinopathy can accompany other retinal complications such as cystoid macular edema (CME), which leads to central visual loss. We report a case of CME with HCQ retinopathy that improved with the use of oral acetazolamide, and discussed the possible mechanisms of CME in HCQ retinopathy using multimodal imaging modalities. CASE PRESENTATION A 62-year-old pati...

Cystoid Macular Edema in Bietti's Crystalline Retinopathy

A 27-year-old man with progressive bilateral visual decline was diagnosed to have Bietti's crystalline dystrophy (BCD). Fluorescein angiography revealed bilateral petaloid type late hyperfluorescence implicating concurrent cystoid macular edema (CME). Optical coherence tomography exhibited cystoid foveal lacunas OU. During the follow-up of six years, intraretinal crystals reduced in amount but ...
