[Familial disposition to oradialysis and retinal detachment in emmetropic subjects].
A family is described in which unilateral retinal detachment and oradialysis occurred in four of the six members (the father and three of his five children); there was no record of previous trauma. None of the subjects is myopic nor is any of them suffering from degenerative changes of the fundus. In all four cases the detachment was observed when they were aged between 18 and 26. An autosomal-dominant mode of inheritance is suspected but cannot be regarded as proved until the third generation has been examined.
