  • Title: [Optic disc pit-associated maculopathy and iris-retinochoroidal-coloboma - a rare combination].
    Author: Storch M, Feltgen N, Hoerauf H.
    Journal: Ophthalmologe; 2017 Jul; 114(7):646-649. PubMed ID: 27514522.
    Abstract:
    Kranenburg's syndrome is defined as central serous detachment associated with an optic disc pit. We report the interesting and very seldom combination of Kranenburg's syndrome and iris-retinochoroidal-coloboma. Reattachment was achieved after vitrectomy, peeling of epiretinal membranes, laser coagulation adjacent and temporal to the optic disc and gas endotamponade. Coincidence of this syndrome with an iris-retinochoroidal-coloboma is extremely rare. Both coloboma and optic disc pit are based on closure defects during week 6 of embryogenesis.
