The ocular abnormalities of blue diaper syndrome
Metabolic, Pediatric, and Systemic Ophthalmology (New York, N.Y. : 1985)
|January 1, 1991
Abstract:
We describe the ocular abnormalities seen in a new metabolic disease which is deficient in the transport of tryptophan. Besides the symptoms and signs reported previously, we have found microconea, hypoplasia of the optic disc and abnormal eye movements in our case--a ten-year-old-boy. The sibling involvement and consaguineous marriage of the parents suggest a recessive heredity.
