“…Several authors have found that these patients and their families are or will become blind, often because of uncurable retinal detachment. Interestingly, some authors have mentioned that these patients may suffer from glaucoma simplex (Edmund 1961;Jansen 1962;Frandsen 1966;Daniel 1974;Stickler 1965;Knobloch 1976). Meanwhile there are only a few discriptions of the anterior chamber angles.…”

“…During the last decades the interest of co-existing disease in patients with degenerative disease of the retina has increased, and at the beginning of the 1960's co-existing cleft palate and retinal detachment was described (Edmund 1961 ;Frandsen 1966). Several of these patients have been described with a characteristic physiognomy: flat midface, broad and flat nasal bridge, maxil-and mandibelhypoplasia, long extremities of the Marfan type, Scheuerman-like lesions of the columna, hypermobile joints, bad hearing and trichomegaly (Stickler et al 1965;Frandsen 1966; Hirose et al 1973;Popkin & Polomeno 1974;Knobloch 1974;Daniel et al 1974;Herrmann et al 1975;Fishman et al 1976;Maumenee 1979;Nehen 1981). Stickler et al (1965) examined a family in which the proband was a boy with high myopia and joint deformities.…”

“…Several of these patients have punctuated and radiary opacities of the lens in the youth, located in several layers of the anterior and posterior cortex, a localisation which is remarkable (Frandsen 1966;Herrmann 1975). The cataract increases slowly, and the lens often has to be extracted.…”

Stickler's Syndrome

During recent years a new syndrome involving degenerations of the corpus vitreum and retina, and dysplastic abnormities of the bones, Sticklers Syndrome, has been evaluated. The patients have a bad visual prognosis because of a tendency to often uncurable retinal detachment. Several patients have glaucoma simplex, but only few descriptions of the angles of the anterior chamber have been published. Two patients with typical malformations and abnormal angles of the anterior chamber are described. Gonoidysgenesis is assumed to be part of the syndrome, which seems to be more common than earlier assumed.

“…Several British authors have reported families with x-linked juvenile retinoschisis, notably Mann & McRae (1938) and Sorsby (195 I), whereas the autosomal dominant and recessive variations have not been described. In Denmark Frandsen (1966) reported a Wagner family.…”

A Family With Vitreo‐tapeto‐retino‐choroidal Degeneration With Dominant Transmission

A family with vitreo-tapeto-retino-choroidal degeneration is presented. Five members of a sibship of nine and their mother are affected. Retinal changes in the form of macular degeneration and peripheral preretinal membranes are the most prominent features. Other manifestations are vitreous degeneration, optic atrophy, equatorial pigmentation, and complicated cataract. The heredity is probably autosomal dominant. Comparisons are made with the well-known hereditary vitreo-retinal degenerations, in particular with Wagner's disease. Above all, the extensive macular degeneration in two of the patients, involving the retina, the pigment epithelium, and the choriocapillaris, distinguishes the present disorder from the above-mentioned.
