“…A negative ERG has been described in stationary and progressive hereditary retinal disorders as well as acquired retinal dysfunctions. Hereditary disorders were congenital stationary night blindness [Miyake et al, 1986[Miyake et al, , 1987 and the following progressive disorders: x-linked retinoschisis [Peachey et al, 1987], subtypes of cone dystrophies [Kellner and Foerster, 1993], RP [Cideciyan and Jacobson, 1993] and macular dystrophy [Miyake et al, 1989;Kato and Watanabe, 1990], Duchenne muscular dystrophy [Pillers et al, 1993], and Müller cell sheen dystrophy [Gass, 1997;Kellner et al, 1998]. An acquired retinal dysfunction with negative ERG is melanoma-associated retinopathy [Alexander et al, 1992;Kellner et al, 1994].…”
