RESUMEN
La retinosis pigmentaria comprende un grupo de trastornos hereditarios que causan degeneración progresiva de la retina
afectando a los fotorreceptores y a su epitelio pigmentario. Se caracteriza por ceguera nocturna y disminución del campo
visual. La edad de inicio de los síntomas varía desde la infancia hasta la edad adulta. A la exploración de fondo de ojo se
observa palidez del disco óptico, vasos atenuados y depósitos de pigmento en un patrón de espícula ósea. Las pruebas
diagnósticas incluyen adaptometría oscura y electrorretinografía. El diagnóstico diferencial se puede realizar con trauma
ocular, inflamación ocular asociada con infecciones, retinopatía paraneoplásica y toxicidad por drogas (fenotiazinas y
cloroquina). No existe tratamiento definitivo.
