ABSTRACT
Stickler`s syndrome is a progressive, connective tissue disease which has an autosomal dominant trait with variable penetrance. Ocular changes include vitreoretinal degenera- tion, retinal pigmentary changes, retinal detachment, chori- oretinal atrophy, cataract and high myopia. Systemically, characteristic facial appearances, musculoskeletal abnormal- ities and hearing loss may be associated. We experienced a sporadic case of Stickler`s syndrome in a neonate and report with a review of the literatures.
