Descriptor Spanish: Distrofia Macular Viteliforme
Descriptor distrofia viteliforme macular
Entry term(s) distrofia viteliforme foveomacular
enfermedad de Best
Scope note: Maculopatía hereditaria, autosómica dominante que comienza en la niñez con acumulación de LIPOFUSCINA en el EPITELIO PIGMENTARIO RETINIANO. Los individuos afectados sufren pérdida progresiva de la agudeza visual central y distorsión de la visión (METAMORFOPSIA). Se asocia a mutaciones de la bestrofina, un canal de cloruoro.

Scope note: Autosomal dominant hereditary maculopathy with childhood-onset accumulation of LIPOFUSION in RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIUM. Affected individuals develop progressive central acuity loss, and distorted vision (METAMORPHOPSIA). It is associated with mutations in bestrophin, a chloride channel.
