[The fluorescein angiographic picture of hereditary colloid bodies (author's transl)]

The authors present five patients with dominant hereditary colloid bodies of the retinal centre from two family trees. Their fluoroangiographical pictures confirm the variable clinical manifestations and ophthalmological findings which because of the special colloid bodies arrangement show a resemblance to the Hutchinson-Tay, Holthouse-Batton, Doyne and Klaingutti cases, also within the framework of a single family tree. With the help of the angiogram the type and development stage can be followed, while this disease passes from functionally and ophthalmologically unimportant lesions into the final stage of atrophy and the fibrous conversion of the whole rear eye pole.
