We describe a case of Best Vitelliform Macular Dystrophy using the Mirante device by Nidek, a multi-modal confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) system equipped with Retro Mode Illumination, a relatively new retinal imaging modality.

Purpose: To report the association of optic nerve head (ONH) drusen with Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD). Methods: Chart review. Patients: Five patients from 3 families. Results: Multimodal imaging and ophthalmic examination demonstrated findings consistent with ONH drusen, in association with BVMD, in 5 patients. Conclusion: We report the association of BVMD with ONH drusen in 5 patients. This combination has previously been reported only once. We recommend that patients with a diagnosis of BVMD undergo autofluorescence and ultrasound imaging of the optic nerve to help facilitate this diagnosis, as some ONH drusen can be buried.

BackgroundTo analyse multimodal imaging alterations in the subclinical form of best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD).MethodsThe study was designed as an observational, cross-sectional case series. Eleven eyes of 7 subclinical patients with BVMD and 12 age-matched and sex-matched controls were included. Multimodal imaging included fundus blue-light autofluorescence, near-infrared autofluorescence (NIR-AF), structural optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA). The quantitative analysis included the calculation of the following parameters: vessel density (VD), vessel tortuosity (VT), vessel dispersion (Vdisp), vessel rarefaction (VR), foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area, reflectivity of the outer retinal bands and choriocapillaris porosity (CCP).ResultsMean best-corrected visual acuity was 0.0±0.0 LogMAR in both groups. The round central hypoautofluorescent alteration on NIR-AF corresponded to a significant reflectivity attenuation of the outer retinal bands on structural OCT (0.55±0.18 vs 0.75±0.08; p<0.001). VD, VT, VR and Vdisp were normal compared with controls (all p>0.05). The FAZ area turned out to be significantly restricted at the level of the deep capillary plexus in subclinical BVMD eyes (p<0.001). Furthermore, quantitative OCTA revealed a significant central increase of CCP, compared with controls (18.25±2.43 vs 4.58±1.36; p<0.001).ConclusionsThe subclinical stage of BVMD is characterised by significant alterations of the outer retinal bands and the choriocapillaris. Quantitative multimodal imaging assessment suggests that subclinical BVMD is affected by the functional impairment of the outer retinal structures, leading to an alteration in melanin and growth factor production.

Purpose: This work describes the first published case of Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD) with bilateral, solitary, extramacular retinal lesions. Methods: A case report is presented. Results: An 8-year-old girl with a family history of BVMD was referred for suspicious peripheral retinal lesions. Multimodal imaging disclosed bilateral, solitary, extramacular lesions consistent with the vitelliform lesions found in BVMD. There were no abnormalities in the macula. Conclusions: This is the first documented case of solitary, bilateral, extramacular vitelliform lesions in BVMD.
