Senior's syndrome (hereditary renal retinal dysplasia) associated with cataracts.
Senior's syndrome includes nephronophthisis with retinitis pigmentosa. In our patient, there was a combination of bilateral retinitis pigmentosa, cataracts, nephronophthisis, osteomalacia, growth and mental retardation, arterial hypertension, and aortic insufficiency. This case was unusual because all the features of Senior's syndrome existed along with bilateral cataracts from childhood.
