July 2016 in “JAMA Ophthalmology” The study investigated 10 patients with congenital hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy (HJMD) due to biallelic mutations in CDH3. Patients, aged 3 to 57 years, exhibited central visual disturbance and sparse scalp hair. Retinal imaging showed chorioretinal atrophy and outer retinal tubulations. Visual acuity deteriorated over time in 5 patients, while retinal thickness decreased. Electrophysiologic evaluations indicated macular dysfunction, with some showing generalized retinal dysfunction. Biallelic mutations, including 6 novel ones, were identified in all patients. The study concluded that CDH3-related disease is marked by progressive chorioretinal atrophy and sparse scalp hair, distinguishing it from other juvenile macular dystrophies.
