ABSTRACT
Introduction: best vitelliform dystrophy or Best's disease is a hereditary disorder, with an autosomal dominant inheritance, very rare that is characterized by bilateral single or multiple macular lesions that evolves through different stages and in more advanced stages produces loss of visual acuity; It is usually diagnosed in adulthood, despite its onset at an early age. Clinical case: male patient of 8 years of age comes for the first time to our consultation 14 months ago, referring to the wavy objects and decreased vision of the right eye. No history of similar picture, or associated symptoms. It does not refer to personal pathological or family history. Nor does it refer to personal or family eye histories. An ophthalmological examination was carried out and, for clinical reasons; we suspected Best vitelliform dystrophy, complicated by choroidal neovascularization in his right eye. The diagnosis is made through coherent optical tomography, fluorescein angiography and electroculogram. Periocular treatment with triamcinolone 1cc was indicated, seeking an anti-angiogenic effect in his right eye, after which visual acuity improved from 0.6 to 0.7. Conclusions: diagnosis of Best vitelliform dystrophy was made from the clinical examination and it was corroborated with coherent optical tomography, fluorescein angiography and electroculogram. Treatment was indicated with which the patient improves his visual acuity.REFERENCES
