Methods:
Single case report of a child with a colobomatous retinal detachment and the focal dermal hypoplasia syndrome.
Conclusions:
Retinal detachments may occur as part of the focal dermal hypoplasia syndrome. Expanding knowledge of this syndrome may help ophthalmologists diagnose this rare condition.
