Abstract:
A 68-year-old man with patchy paravenous zones of retinal degeneration with bone spicule pigmentation OU was diagnosed as having pigmented paravenous retinochoroidal atrophy. We reviewed the literature and found 71 previously reported cases of this condition. Most of the affected individuals were young adults. By comparison, our patient was afflicted at a considerably older age.
