title: Retrolental fibroplasia or congenital encephalo-ophthalmic dysplasia?
abstract: Congenital encephalo-ophthalmic dysplasia (CEOD) is described in 2 cases. The eye signs, clinically identical to the cicatricial stage of retrolental fibroplasia (RLF), are combined with brain maldevelopment and occurred without oxygen treatment. RLF in a strict sense could be reserved for oxygen-induced retinopathy in prematures.
