Abstract
- Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome is characterized by a spectrum of anterior segment dysgenesis involving neural-crest-derived tissues, most commonly secondary to mutations in the transcription factor genesSingle retrospective case report.A full-term infant presented at 5 weeks of age with bilateral Peters anomaly and Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome, with development of atypical features of progressive corneal neovascularization and proliferative vitreoretinopathy. Despite surgical interventions, the patient progressed to bilateral phthisis bulbi by 22 months of age. Genetic testing revealed a novel de novo p.Leu212Valfs*39 mutation inIt is important to consider mutations in
