    Abstract:
    Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy is a hereditary insufficiency of retinal vascularture, which manifests a variety of vitreoretinal abnormalities, including nonvascularlized retina, abnormality of retinal vessel growing, dragged retina, retinal folds and total retinal detachment. While causative genes have been identified, cases are often sporadic. Periodic examination is necessary to find recurrence of the disease and late complications, including rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, cataract and glaucoma.
