ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To describe the clinical phenotype and molecular diagnosis of a patient with atypical presentation of enhanced S-cone syndrome.METHODS:
This is a case report of a patient who underwent best-corrected visual acuity, slit-lamp exam, fundus examination, autofluorescence, optical coherence tomography, kinetic perimetry, and full-field electroretinography. Genetic testing was performed via next-generation sequencing.RESULTS:
A 33-year-old female patient presented with mild nyctalopia, but normal rod function measured by electroretinogram and foveoschisis on optical coherence tomography. She also presented a double hyperautofluorescent ring on autofluorescence. Genetic testing found a pathogenic variant c.925C>G (p.Arg309Gly) and a likely pathogenic variant c.299C>T (p.Arg77Trp) in NR2E3 gene.CONCLUSION:
Enhanced S-cone syndrome may present without the pathognomonic findings of decreased rod function on electroretinogram, suggesting the importance of genetic testing in retinal diseases for diagnosis.
