摘要
The authors report a 16-year-old girl with mucolipidosis type IV. She was referred because of deteriorating vision over the past three years. Corneal clouding with the appearance of cornea verticillata and retinal dystrophy were the main ophthalmological findings. Except for clumsiness no psychomotor retardation was present. Ultrastructural analysis of a conjunctival biopsy and cultured fibroblasts suggested a diagnosis of mucolipidosis type IV which was confirmed by biochemical studies. This patient represents the mildest described presentation of mucolipidosis type IV.
