Abstract

Optic disc pallor is associated with a wide variety of disorders that affect optic nerve; including inflammatory disorders, nutritional deficiencies, and heredodegenerative disease. Cone dystrophy is rare but must be kept in mind as a cause of optic disc pallor. Electroretinography is an important diagnostic tool in diagnosis of cone-rod dystrophy. We report a case of cone dystrophy which has normal neurological findings except optic disc pathology.

Özet

Optik disk solukluğu (ODS) optik siniri etkileyen enflamatuvar hastalıklar, nutrisyonel yetersizlikler ve herediter dejeneratif hastalıklar gibi birçok rahatsızlıkla ilişkili olabilir. Koni distrofisi nadir görülmekle birlikte ODS tanısında akla gelmelidir. Elektroretinografi (ERG) koni-rod distrofisi tanısında önemli bir tanı aracıdır. Makalede ODS dışında nörolojik muayeneleri normal olan ve koni distrofisi tanısı alan bir hasta bildirilmiştir.
