Entry term(s) degeneración macular juvenil
enfermedad de Stargardt de tipo 1
Scope note: Distrofia macular de inicio juvenil caracterizada por pérdida progresiva de AGUDEZA VISUAL con agudeza normal en los CAMPOS VISUALES periféricos. Otras características clínicas asociadas pueden ser autofluorescencia de LIPOFUSCINA en el fondo del ojo, atrofia del EPITELIO PIGMENTADO DE LA RETINA, pérdida de la visión de los colores, FOTOFOBIA y ESCOTOMA PARACENTRAL. Se han identificado mutaciones de la línea germinal en el gen ABCA4 en enfermedades recesivas y dominantes.

Scope note: A juvenile-onset macular dystrophy characterized by progressive loss of VISUAL ACUITY with normal acuity in peripheral VISUAL FIELDS. Other associated clinical features may include LIPOFUSCIN fundus autofluorescence, atrophy of the RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIUM, loss of color vision, PHOTOPHOBIA and PARACENTRAL SCOTOMA. Germline mutations in the ABCA4 gene have been identified in recessive and dominant diseases.
