    Abstract:
    Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina is a chorioretinal degeneration caused by a deficiency of ornithine aminotransferase. We report the case of a 29-year-old woman who showed an advanced stage of gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina fortuitously discovered. Examination of the patient provided an opportunity to describe pathophysiology, knowledge on the ornithine aminotransferase gene, and finally the therapeutics used in this disease.
