RESUMO
Clinical data of a child with Traboulsi syndrome diagnosed in Affiliated Haikou Hospital of Xiangya Medical College, Central South University in November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.A 9-year-old female patient presented with vision loss for 3 years.Ectopic lens and a special facial appearance were the main manifestations.Genetic testing showed a homozygous mutation at the c. 1126C > T site of the ASPH gene in the present case, and finally, Traboulsi syndrome was diagnosed.The clinical manifestation of Traboulsi syndrome is not typical.Mastering the main diagnostic points is helpful to improve the efficacy of clinical diagnosis and treatment.c.1126C>T mutation of the ASPH gene has not been reported in China and abroad.It is a newly discovered mutation that enriches the ASPH gene spectrum.
RESUMO
A lady who underwent lensectomy for microspherophakia and pars plana vitrectomy for retinal detachment in her left eye developed recurrent filtering blebs at the site of sclerotomies. Filtering blebs were managed by suturing the sclerotomies. Targeted gene sequencing identified a variant of ASPH gene (p.Arg688Gln) which is not known to be associated with Traboulsi syndrome. But considering the paucity of cases with genetic analysis, it would be possible that p.Arg688Gln is a pathogenic variant. This is the first case report of Traboulsi syndrome due to an ASPH variant not reported earlier that can lead to recurrent filtering blebs.
