  • Title: [HLA antigens in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (author's transl)].
    Author: Bertrams J, Spitznas M, Vieira de Souza N.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1978 Dec; 173(6):786-90. PubMed ID: 732196.
    Abstract:
    An analysis of HLA-antigens was carried out in 132 patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. While emmetropic and hyperopic patients showed no deviation from the normal HLA distribution pattern, HLA-B 12 was found to be significantly increased (30,3% versus a control frequency of 21,8%) at the Pc less than 0,05 level in myopic patients. This deviation frequency was identical in patients with and without a positive family history and was not related to the degree of myopia.
