Reticular tapeto-retinal dystrophy. As a possible late stage of Sjögren's reticular dystrophy.

چکیده
Findings from two patients with a reticular tapetoretinal dystrophy strongly suggested advanced stages of Sjögren's reticular dystrophy. These observations emphasize that, although initially a benign disease, advanced stages of Sjörgren's dystrophy may eventually manifest diffuse photoreceptor and retinal pigment epithelial disease.

A Case of Reticular Pattern Dystrophy of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium
We present a case of reticular pattern dystrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) in a 64-year-old woman. Fundus examination revealed discoloration at the macula in both eyes. Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging showed clearly defined reticular hyperfluorescent lesions. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) demonstrated focal thickening of the RPE, called bumps, and the inner segment/oute...

We thank Giuseppe Querques for his comments on our recent article on Sorsby fundus dystrophy (SFD). We fully agree with his observation that the drusen-like deposits at the fundus of some patients shown in our study resemble reticular pseudodrusen (RPD). We also endorse his interesting pathophysiologic considerations. When reviewing the literature on SFD, we noticed a lack of detailed analysis ...
