Hyperreflective Ganglion Cell Layer Band in Gyrate Atrophy
None:
We have described the hyperreflective ganglion cell layer band (HGCB) in a series of cases of gyrate atrophy. Clinical fundus examination and multimodal imaging which included optical coherence tomography (OCT) was done in all cases. Four patients (one male, three female) were studied. In all four cases, a hyperreflective band was noted in the ganglion cell layer. In three patients, the band was continuous, and in one patient, the band was patchy. To conclude, HGCB is a novel OCT sign in gyrate atrophy and can be valuable in prognostication of disease. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina 2024;55:598-602.].
