Lattice corneal dystrophy

MedGen UID:
56355
Concept ID:
C0155127
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: Familial Amyloid Neuropathy, Finnish Type; Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy, Type V; Finnish Type Familial Amyloid Neuropathy; Type V Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy
SNOMED CT: Lattice corneal dystrophy (361199007)
 
HPO: HP:0001149
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0004686

Definition

The presence of fine, branching linear opacities in Bowman's layer in the central area that may spread to the periphery in the clinical course. The deep corneal stroma may be involved but the process does not reach Descemet's membrane. Recurrent corneal erosion may occur. Histologic examination reveals amyloid deposits in the collagen fibers of the cornea. [from HPO]

Conditions with this feature

Avellino corneal dystrophy
MedGen UID:
220900
Concept ID:
C1275685
Disease or Syndrome
Type II granular corneal dystrophy (GCDII) is a rare form of stromal corneal dystrophy (see this term) characterized by irregular-shaped well-demarcated granular deposits in the superficial central corneal stroma, and progressive visual impairment.
Meretoja syndrome
MedGen UID:
301243
Concept ID:
C1622345
Disease or Syndrome
The Finnish type of systemic amyloidosis is characterized clinically by a unique constellation of features including lattice corneal dystrophy, and cranial neuropathy, bulbar signs, and skin changes. Some patients may develop peripheral neuropathy and renal failure. The disorder is usually inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern; however, homozygotes with a more severe phenotype have also been reported (Meretoja, 1973).
Lattice corneal dystrophy Type I
MedGen UID:
305533
Concept ID:
C1690006
Disease or Syndrome
Lattice corneal dystrophy type I (CDL1) is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by deposition of amyloid in the corneal stroma. Onset occurs in the first or second decade of life and progresses over time. The anterior stroma has rod-like or linear opacities. Recurrent erosions are common and central anterior stromal haze may develop with age. The lesions usually affect the anterior and central corneas, leaving a relatively normal periphery (summary by Lin et al., 2016).
Corneal dystrophy, lattice type 3A
MedGen UID:
332989
Concept ID:
C1837974
Disease or Syndrome
Lattice corneal dystrophy type IIIA (CDL3A) is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by amyloid accumulation in the corneal stroma. It is clinically manifest as the presence of thick ropy lattice lines in the cornea. Recurrent erosions are common. Onset occurs between 70 and 90 years of age (Yamamoto et al., 1998).
