PURPOSE: To report a previously undescribed macular dystrophy.DESIGN: Single descriptive case report.METHODS: Presentation of clinical findings, including ophthalmoscopy, fluorescein angiography, full-field and multifocal electroretinography (ERG), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and visual fields.RESULTS: A 10 year-old Caucasian girl had peculiar reddish blotchy macular lesions bilaterally, associated with decreased visual acuity, and no family history of similar lesions. Fluorescein angiography was inconclusive and showed mottled hyperfluorescence in the macula. The full-field electroretinogram was normal, but multifocal ERG revealed diminished waveforms centrally.CONCLUSION: This is possibly a new macular dystrophy, the nature of which remains to be determined.
