RESUMEN
Caso clínico Presentamos el caso de un niño de 10 años con una distrofia macular viteliforme bilateral, en progresión, y el padre con estadios finales en ambos ojos; se estudia la evolución con la tomografía óptica de coherencia.

Discusión:

La tomografía óptica de coherencia es una herramienta útil y no invasiva, que permite complementar el diagnóstico y el seguimiento de los pacientes, aportando datos morfológicos de la lesión así como cambios secundarios en la retina adyacente. Demuestra la localización del material amarillento depositado bajo la retina sensorial
ABSTRACT
Case report We report the case of a 10-year-old boy with a progressive bilateral vitelliform macular dystrophy, and his father with terminal stage disease in both eyes; we studied the development and progression of this condition with optical coherence tomography.

Discussion:

Optical coherence tomography is a useful noninvasive tool that complements other diagnostic modalities and improves the follow up assessment. It provides additional information on the morphology of the lesion as well as identifying secondary changes in the adjacent retina. It also demonstrates the location of any yellowish material under the sensory retina (Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol 2008; 83 501-504)
