  • Title: A fifty-year follow-up of ocular defects in congenital rubella: late ocular manifestations.
    Author: Arnold JJ, McIntosh ED, Martin FJ, Menser MA.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Ophthalmol; 1994 Feb; 22(1):1-6. PubMed ID: 8037908.
    Abstract:
    Fifty patients born with congenital rubella in 1939-1945 were reviewed in 1967. In 1991 this cohort was again studied and their ophthalmic features are presented here. The presence of two new cataracts and one case of possible choroidal neovascularisation are again noted; apart from these three eyes, the group showed no evidence of other delayed manifestations of the congenital rubella syndrome. A review is given of the ocular complications of the congenital rubella syndrome, with particular emphasis on the late complications.
