Bilateral anterior segment dysgenesis and persistent fetal vasculature associated with terminal 10q26 deletion.

ABSTRACT

Deletion of the 26q position on chromosome 10 results in a syndrome with well-documented systemic phenotypes. There are few reports of ophthalmic manifestations in terminal 10q26 deletion. We report a 4-week-old boy with terminal 10q26 deletion who had extensive ophthalmic abnormalities, including bilateral anterior segment dysgenesis and bilateral persistent fetal vasculature, with microphthalmia, microcornea, iris corectopia, congenital cataracts, and posterior embryotoxon.
