Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Wagner vitreoretinopathy is a rare vitreoretinal degeneration inherited as an autosomal dominant trait, first described in a large Swiss pedigree (Wagner, 1938) and subsequently identified in other families. Penetrance in Wagner syndrome is complete, and the disease manifests ...
Clinical Description OMIM Wagner (1938) described 13 members of a Canton Zurich family with a peculiar lesion of the vitreous and retina. Ten additional affected members were observed by Boehringer et al. (1960) and 5 more by Ricci (1961). In Holland ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In a large Japanese family with vitreoretinopathy that segregated with the previously identified WGN1 locus on 5q13-q14, Miyamoto et al. (2005) identified a heterozygous splice site mutation in intron 7 of the CSPG2 gene (VCAN; 118661.0001) that cosegregated ...
Diagnosis GeneReviews VCAN-related vitreoretinopathy is characterized by:...
Clinical Description GeneReviews VCAN-related vitreoretinopathy comprises the phenotypic continuum of Wagner vitreoretinal degeneration (Wagner syndrome) and erosive vitreoretinopathy (ERVR), two disorders that were previously thought to be distinct entities based on clinical findings. Wagner syndrome, the first reported inherited vitreoretinal degeneration, was described by Wagner [1938]. ERVR was described in 1994 as a new clinical entity with some features that overlapped with Wagner syndrome [Brown et al 1994]. ...
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews Because of the highly variable frequency of findings and the low number of mutations identified to date, no definite genotype-phenotype correlations have been established so far. ...
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews Syndromes with overlapping features. A recent review summarizes the clinical features of inherited vitreoretinopathies and points out the importance of consulting an expert ophthalmologist in diagnostic assessment of the disease [Edwards 2008]. ...
Management GeneReviews To establish the extent of disease in an individual diagnosed with VCAN-related vitreoretinopathy, the following evaluations are recommended: ...
