Ectropion and epiphora in McArdle's syndrome.
Ectropion is unusual in young individuals. Recently, we treated a 19-year-old male college student for epiphora due to bilateral ectropion associated with McArdle's syndrome, a myophosphorylase deficiency. To our knowledge, there have been no previous reports of ectropion and epiphora as a result of this rare glycogen-storage disease.
