HANDBOOK OF PEDIATRIC EYE AND SYSTEMIC DISEASE

TABLE 10-2. Ocular and Systemic Findings in Selected Inherited Syndromes (continued).

General Description: postnatal onset of mild growth deficiency, mild to severe mental deficiency, hearing loss, microcephaly, large laterally protruding ears, large bulbous nose, sparse scalp hair, loose redundant skin in infancy, maculopapular skin nevi, cone-shaped epiphyses, multiple exostoses of long tubular bones

Larsen’s Syndrome Desbuquois Syndrome MIM *150250, *245600 Gene map locus: 3p21.1–p14.1. Inheritance: autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive respectively. Six cases reported.

Leber’s Congenital Amaurosis, Type I, II, III, IV, V MIM #204000, #204100, *604232, #604393, *604537, Gene map locus: 19q13.3, 17p13.1, 1p31, 14q24, 6q11–q16. Inheritance: autosomal recessive. Incidence: 1:33,000.

General Description: in some patients: mental retardation, retarded growth, neurological disorders, hearing loss, midfacial hypoplasia, renal disorders, hyperthreoninemia

Ocular Findings: most common cause of congenital visual impairment in infants and children, vision ranges from 20/200 to bare light perception in most patients. The disease affects both rods and cones.

Common: nystagmus beginning in the second or third month of life, sluggish pupillary response, hyperopic refraction, vision of 20/200 to bare light perception. Ophthalmoscopic findings range from a normal appearance, particularly in infancy, to classic retinitis pigmentosa with bone spicules, attenuation of arterioles, and disc pallor. Other ocular abnormalities include cataract, keratoconus, keratoglobus, photophobia, oculodigital reflex (eye poking). Given the variability in fundus appearance, the diagnosis of Leber’s congenital amaurosis cannot be based on fundus appearace alone and requires an electroretinogram. Because both Refsum’s disease (infantile phytanic acid storage disease) and Bassen–Kornzweig syndrome (abetalipoproteinemia), which are treatable, have been reported to present as Leber’s congenital amaurosis, they should be ruled out.

Less common: irregularity of the retinal pigment epithelium, extensive chorioretinal atrophy, macular “coloboma,” white dots (similar to retinitis punctata albescens), marbleized retinal appearance, disc edema

Lenz–Majewski Hyperostotic Dwarfism Craniodiaphyseal Dysplasia-Lenz Majewski Type MIM 151050 Inheritance: autosomal dominant. Seven cases reported.

Linear Nevus Sebaceous of Jadassohn MIM 163200 Inheritance: sporadic. Over 450 cases reported.

General Description: nevus sebaceous with hyperpigmentation and hyperkeratosis. The lesions, which are present at birth, are yellowish-orange or tan and brownish raised linear skin lesions on the face, head, and neck, or thorax, usually distributed along the midline. The nevi become verrucous and nodular at puberty, and malignant transformation may occur in the postpubertal period (15%–20%) especially into basal cell carcinoma; therefore, early surgical removal should be considered. Patients frequently have convulsions, developmental delay, and asymmetrical overgrowth. Vitamin D- resistant rickets sometimes occurs.

Ocular Findings: occasionally, the nevus may involve the eyelids extensively, and a large vascularized choriostomatous mass may comprise the lids, conjunctiva, and cornea. The conjunctival lesions are choriostomas and consist of hyperplastic sebaceous glands, apocrine glands, and immature hair follicles. Patients may have scarring and vascularization of the cornea.

Death usually occurs by 5 years of age from pneumonia or congestive heart failure. Caused by failure of incorporation of acid hydrolase into lysosomes (see pseudo-Hurler polydystrophy syndrome).

Ocular Findings: hypoplastic orbits with hypoplasia of the supraorbital ridges and prominence of the globes, thin eyebrows, puffy eyelids, inner epicanthal folds, cavernous skin hemangiomas. Corneal clouding (the cornea usually remains clear in early life, but approximately 40% of patients later develop abnormal stromal granularity and mild opacity). Glaucoma and megalocornea have been reported. Normal funduscopic examination.
