  • Title: Prenatal exclusion of Norrie's disease.
    Author: Redmond RM, Graham CA, Kelly ED, Coleman M, Nevin NC.
    Journal: Br J Ophthalmol; 1992 Aug; 76(8):491-3. PubMed ID: 1390533.
    Abstract:
    We report on the use of DNA marker probes and linkage analysis to exclude Norrie's disease in the male fetus of a high risk carrier. There are no clinical markers in females carrying the Norrie's disease gene; thus DNA linkage analysis is an essential technique in the management of families 'at-risk' for this severe ophthalmic disease. The principles of DNA linkage are discussed.
