Abstract |
Microvascular retinal abnormalities, presenting in a corkscrew configuration, have been very recently described in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1). We report one more patient with NF-1 who had distinctive corkscrew retinal vessels superior and inferior to the fovea. This patient further supports the existence of a true association between this recently described retinal finding and NF-1. |
