Proteus syndrome: report of a case with developmental glaucoma.
[proteus syndrome]
The
purpose
of
this
study
was
to
report
developmental
glaucoma
and
pseudopapilledema
in
a
patient
with
Proteus
syndrome
.
We
defined
the
presence
of
developmental
glaucoma
,
right
pseudopapilledema
and
myopia
in
a
4
.
5
-
year
-old
patient
with
Proteus
syndrome
.
Marked
right
hemihypertrophy
,
lipoma
,
macrodactyly
,
and
asymmetry
of
the
limbs
were
observed
on
systemic
examination
.
A
cavernoma
was
also
detected
in
magnetic
resonance
imaging
of
the
brain
.
The
patient
underwent
bilateral
goniotomy
surgery
due
to
glaucoma
.
The
surgical
outcomes
were
satisfactory
in
both
eyes
.
In
conclusions
developmental
glaucoma
and
pseudopapilledema
might
be
associated
with
Proteus
syndrome
.
