Intrafamilial heterogeneity of congenital optic disc pit maculopathy.

abstract：BACKGROUND:MSX2 mutations are a very rare cause of craniosynostosis. Gain-of-function mutations may lead to the Boston-type craniosynostosis with limb defects and refraction errors, whereas loss-of-function mutations causes primary osseous defects such as enlarged parietal foramina. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Herein we rep...
