The clinical and pathological findings in a two-month old girl having partial trisomy 15, are presented. The patient showed bilateral microphthalmia accompanied by a retrolental mass in her left eye. She underwent vitrectomy, lensectomy and accidental retinectomy. During the course of the operation, persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV) was found with findings of retinal dysplasia on the pathologic examination.
