      Case#: Patient 24, male, Caucasian, onset at 50yo, Germany

      DiseaseAssertion: STGD

      FamilyInfo: co-segregation of variant in 2 family members (siblings) but they do not appear to be affected based on pedigree

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0030528, HP:0000505, HP:0012508, HP:0001105, HP:0025148

      CaseHPOFreeText: progressive paracentral scotoma OU, progressive visual impairment OU (blurry vision). BCVA: OD-0.1, OS-0.22. Tension: 13mmHg/14mmHg. FAF: bilateral hyperautofluorescent macular and peripapillary spots, few spots of paracentral retinal atrophy (foveal sparing). Autofluorescence and deposits (severity): deposits medium, atrophy low. OCT: hyperreflective spots, partially invading into the outer retina, partly confluent lesions of cRORA, foveal sparing, degenerative intraretinal fluid. Central macular thickness: 328µm/322µm. Macular volume: 9.31mm³/9.00mm³. mfERG: bilateral amplitudes in normal range, slight relative reduction in the paracentral areas. Fluorescein angiography: bilateral dark choroid, mild paracentral dye pooling in the late phase. Color vision: Inconspicuous. Clinical examination: pattern-like distribution of the lesions.

      Gene: ABCA4

      HGNC ID: 34

      Case Annotation Template

      Case#: 19-year-old male

      DiseaseAssertion: Stargardt disease 1 (STGD1)

      FamilyInfo: No family history of eye disease reported. Autosomal recessive inheritance consistent with STGD1. Homozygous ABCA4 variant identified.

      CasePresentingHPOs: DecreasedCentralVA, MacularAtrophy, MacularFlecks, PeripapillarySparing, OpticNervePallor

      CaseHPOFreeText: Five-year history of progressive bilateral central vision loss, worse at near. Alternating exotropia measuring 16 prism diopters in all gazes OU. Best corrected visual acuity 20/200 OU. Fundus examination revealed pigment deposition and macular mottling. Fundus autofluorescence showed central decreased autofluorescence surrounded by increased autofluorescence. Fluorescein angiography demonstrated dark choroid. OCT showed loss of the central ellipsoid zone with hyperreflective deposits. Multifocal ERG demonstrated significant functional loss.

      CaseNotHPOs: NightBlindness

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: Patient denied nyctalopia, photophobia, or flashes. Color vision normal on Ishihara testing.

      Genotyping Method: Genotyping Method: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) with deletion/duplication analysis (Invitae Corporation).
