Retinitis pigmentosa 84(RP84)

MedGen UID:
1648352
Concept ID:
C4748725
Disease or Syndrome
Synonym: RP84
 
Gene (location): DHX38 (16q22.2)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0032604
OMIM®: 618220

Clinical features

From HPO
Night blindness
MedGen UID:
10349
Concept ID:
C0028077
Disease or Syndrome
Inability to see well at night or in poor light.
Cataract
MedGen UID:
39462
Concept ID:
C0086543
Disease or Syndrome
A cataract is an opacity or clouding that develops in the crystalline lens of the eye or in its capsule.
Macular atrophy
MedGen UID:
140841
Concept ID:
C0423421
Finding
Well-demarcated area(s) of partial or complete depigmentation in the macula, reflecting atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium with associated retinal photoreceptor loss.
Visual acuity no light perception
MedGen UID:
617771
Concept ID:
C0442774
Finding
Bone spicule pigmentation of the retina
MedGen UID:
323029
Concept ID:
C1836926
Finding
Pigment migration into the retina in a bone-spicule configuration (resembling the nucleated cells within the lacuna of bone).
Coloboma of macula
MedGen UID:
342305
Concept ID:
C1852767
Congenital Abnormality
A macular coloboma is an area of 2-6 disk diameters in which there is total or considerable chorioretinal maldevelopment, often with extasia of the underlying sclera which produces the white appearance visible ophthalmoscopically (summary by Phillips, 1970).
Attenuation of retinal blood vessels
MedGen UID:
480605
Concept ID:
C3278975
Finding
Rod-cone dystrophy
MedGen UID:
1632921
Concept ID:
C4551714
Disease or Syndrome
An inherited retinal disease subtype in which the rod photoreceptors appear to be more severely affected than the cone photoreceptors. Typical presentation is with nyctalopia (due to rod dysfunction) followed by loss of mid-peripheral field of vision, which gradually extends and leaves many patients with a small central island of vision due to the preservation of macular cones.
