General Information of Disease (ID: DISBMVDE)

Disease Name Multifocal pattern dystrophy simulating fundus flavimaculatus
Synonyms multifocal pattern dystrophy simulating Stargardt disease
Definition
Multifocal pattern dystrophy simulating fundus flavimaculatus is a patterned dystrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium characterized by multiple yellowish irregular flecks scattered or interconnected around the macula, simulating what is observed in Stargardt disease, and usually asymptomatic until adulthood when patients present with a slowly progressive loss of vision that often only becomes apparent in old age.
