ADULT-ONSET FOVEOMACULAR VITELLIFORM DYSTROPHY
Alternate names
ADULT-ONSET FOVEOMACULAR VITELLIFORM DYSTROPHY Is also known as adult-onset foveomacular dystrophy, gass disease, pseudo-vitelliform macular dystrophy, adult-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy, pseudo-best disease, vitelliform macular dystrophy, adult-onset, foveomacular dystrophy, adult-onset, adult-onset foveomacular dyst
Description
Adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy (AOFVD) is a genetic macular dystrophy characterized by blurred vision, metamorphopsia and mild visual impairment secondary to a slightly elevated, yellow, egg yolk-like lesion located in the foveal or parafoveal region.
Most common symptoms of ADULT-ONSET FOVEOMACULAR VITELLIFORM DYSTROPHY
- Visual impairment
- Visual loss
- Rod-cone dystrophy
- Reduced visual acuity
- Photophobia

MACULAR DYSTROPHY, VITELLIFORM, 4; VMD4
Description
Macular dystrophies are inherited retinal dystrophies in which various forms of deposits, pigmentary changes, and atrophic lesions are observed in the macula lutea, the cone-rich region of the central retina. Vitelliform macular dystrophies (VMDs) form a subset of macular dystrophies characterized by round yellow deposits, usually at the center of the macula and containing lipofuscin, a chemically heterogeneous pigment visualized by autofluorescence imaging of the fundus (summary by Manes et al., 2013). Vitelliform macular dystrophy-4 is characterized by late-onset moderate visual impairment, small satellite drusen-like lesions in the foveal area, preservation of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) reflectivity, deposits above the RPE between the ellipsoid and outer segment interdigitation lines on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), and normal or borderline results on electrooculography (EOG) (Meunier et al., 2014).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of vitelliform macular dystrophy, see VMD1 (OMIM ).
Most common symptoms of MACULAR DYSTROPHY, VITELLIFORM, 4; VMD4
- Visual impairment
- Abnormality of skin pigmentation
- Macular dystrophy
- Drusen
- Vitelliform-like macular lesions
