Presentation
[…] with brachydactyly and clinodactylys is presented, and it is believed that this family manifests a previously undescribed syndrome due to autosomal dominant or possibly x-linked inheritance with variable expression. [semanticscholar.org]
Oligodontia may be present. Cartilage can have diastrophic changes. Mental development is normal. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
We describe a newborn girl presenting with the same pattern of congenital anomalies as the patients of the family originally described by Sorsby (OMIM 120400). [revista.isciii.es]
Disorder Synonym(s): Sorsby syndrome Prevalence: <1 / 1 000 000 Inheritance: Autosomal dominant Age of onset: Neonatal, Antenatal ICD-10: Q87.1 OMIM: 120400 UMLS: C1852752 MeSH: C535969 GARD: 1437 MedDRA: - The documents contained in this web site are presented [orpha.net]

Fitch Medicine Journal of medical genetics 1979 It is suggested that in every child with proportionate short stature the hands should be carefully examined, and if the hands are disproportionately short, if any distal creases are missing, if there is [semanticscholar.org]
Treatment
Treatment Treatment Options: Surgical treatment of digital anomalies can be beneficial. Low vision aids could be helpful as well. Read more about Sorsby Macular Coloboma Syndrome [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
Inherited Retinal Diseases: Cause and treatment. As the name implies, the cause of inherited retinal diseases are genetic. There are many inherited retinal diseases that vary widely in severity. [retinagroupofnewengland.com]
Treatment There is currently no proven treatment for Sorsby fundus dystrophy. Anti-VEGF injections have been shown to be effective in controlling the growth of new blood vessels in Sorsby fundus dystrophy. [macularsociety.org]
In our patient it responded well to treatment with antiVEGF. It is important to regulary follow other family members with retinal changes, as CNV may develop in the future; with timely treatment permanent vision drop can be postponed. [euretina.org]
Prognosis
Diagnosis and Prognosis: The skeletal abnormalities are self-evident but an ophthalmologist is needed to visualize the colobomas. X-rays are necessary to determine the nature of bony abnormalities in the fingers and toes. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
These aspects are essential to define the prognosis, clinical management and information to the family, and can help also to determine the gene(s) or pathogenetic pathways involved in their origin. Número Sección I. [revista.isciii.es]
Prognosis - Coloboma of macula type B brachydactyly Prognosis of Coloboma of macula, type B brachydactyly: poor The \'prognosis\' of Coloboma of macula, type B brachydactyly usually refers to the likely outcome of Coloboma of macula, type B brachydactyly [checkorphan.org]
Prognosis - there is no progression. [patient.info]
Etiology
They are organised into groups, and further divided into clinical, etiological or histopathological sub-types. [orpha.net]
Etiology unknown. Bilateral vitritis, RPE disruption, and multifocal choroiditis that looks like histo spots but there is vitritis present. Must r/o syphilis/TB. [quizlet.com]
They are characterized predominantly by changes in the posterior pole of genetic etiology, and are often bilateral and symmetrical. [atlasrleye.com]
Ellis in her report suggested nutritional deficiency as a possible etiologic factor and Ashton described amyloid degeneration as a subgroup of the hyalin infiltrations of the eyelids. [myslide.es]

Pathophysiology

The pathophysiology of ABS is reportedly due to a fungal type dysbiosis of the gut that ferments some carbohydrates into ethanol and may mimic a food allergy or intolerance. [mdpi.com]
Ongoing genetic research continues to change the understanding of pathophysiology. Stargardt's disease and fundus flavimaculatus [ 3 ] There has been some question as to whether this condition is two diseases or one. [patient.info]
In 2004, Stone et al. performed a screen on 402 AMD patients and revealed a statistically significant correlation between mutations in fibulin-5 and incidence of the disease. [ edit ] such as that in the MT-ND2 molecule, predicts wet AMD. [31] [32] Pathophysiology [en.wikipedia.org]
