Vitelliform macular dystrophies (VMDs) form a subset of macular dystrophies characterized by round yellow deposits, usually at the center of the macula and containing lipofuscin, a chemically heterogeneous pigment visualized by autofluorescence imaging of the fundus (summary by {4:Manes et al., 2013}). In contrast to typical VMD (see {153700}), patients with atypical VMD may exhibit normal electrooculography, even when severe loss of vision is present, and fluorescein angiography is thus the most reliable test for identifying affected individuals ({2:Hittner et al., 1984}).\\n\\n&lt;Subhead&gt; Genetic Heterogeneity of Vitelliform Macular Dystrophy\\n\\nSee also vitelliform macular dystrophy-2 (VMD2; {153700}), caused by mutation in the BEST1 gene ({607854}) on chromosome 11q; VMD3 ({608161}), caused by mutation in the PRPH2 gene ({179605}) on chromosome 6p21; VMD4 ({616151}), caused by mutation in the IMPG1 gene ({602870}) on chromosome 6q14; and VMD5 ({616152}), caused by mutation in the IMPG2 gene ({607056}) on chromosome 3q12.","GARD_Name__c":"Vitelliform macular dystrophy 1","GARD_Synonym__c":"vmd1","Curated_Disease_Description_Source__c":"PlainLanguagePilotV1-Sep23","Curated_Disease_Description__c":"Macular dystrophy, vitelliform, 1 is a type of inherited retinal dystrophy that affects the macula lutea (central part of the retina), which is important for clear vision.
