Abstract
Cases reports

Three myopic components of a same family came for study because presented severely degraded vitreous, equatorial membranes, retinal pigment epithelium hyperplasia, vascular sheathed and sclerosis of peripheral predominance. A genetic study confirmed the diagnosis of Stickler's syndrome with a variant in the mutation of the COL2A1 gene.

Discussion

Stickler's syndrome should be suspected in families with a characteristic phenotype with vitreous syneresis and alterations in the retina, but there may be genetic variants that do not express the classic phenotype.

Resumen
Casos clínicos

Se remiten para estudio tres pacientes miopes de una misma familia por presentar vítreo degradado de manera severa, membranas ecuatoriales, hiperplasia del epitelio pigmentario de la retina, envainamiento vascular y esclerosis de predominio periférico. Se solicita estudio genético que confirma el diagnóstico de síndrome de Stickler con una variante en la mutación del gen COL2A1.

Discusión

El síndrome de Stickler se debe sospechar en familias que presenten un fenotipo característico con sinéresis vítrea y las referidas alteraciones en la retina, pudiendo existir en ocasiones variantes genéticas que no expresan en su totalidad el fenotipo clásico.
