Atypical retinal microvasculopathy after bone marrow transplantation

Objective: Typical early ischaemic retinal microvascular changes with cotton wool spots after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) are well recognised. In this study an atypical non‐ischaemic late retinopathy is described.

A syndrome involving congenital cataracts of unusual morphology, microcornea, abnormal irides, nystagmus and congenital glaucoma, inherited as an autosomal dominant trait.

Summary A family of three generations is described. They suffer from a syndrome consisting of cataract, microcornea, abnormal irides, nystagmus, and congenital glaucoma inherited as an autosomal dominant trait Both the morphology of the cataracts and the particular combination of findings do not appear to have been described previously.
