Rod monochromatism -- an incomplete form.

An incomplete form of rod monochromatism is described in a young man with normal visual acuity and absence of nystagmus or photophobia. ERG showed normal threshold sensitivity in white and blue lights but virtual absence of the first portion of response in red light. The sensory threshold curve lacked the typical rod-cone discontinuity, whereas the curve after full dark adaptation was normal. It is suggested that the condition is due to atypical disfunction of the cones.

A newly recognized partial alopecia syndrome associated with distinct personality traits.

Upon examining two double first cousins who presented with a newly recognized partial alopecia syndrome, previously reported in one, we discovered that the two shared almost identical personalities. This prompted us to search the literature for other genetic syndromes which are characterized by distinct personality traits. The article reports on two affected members of a family with a syndrome associated with definite somatic and behavioral characteristics most probably transmitted as an autosomal recessive disorder.

Spiral looping of retinal artery.

An isolated retinal vascular anomaly in the form of an arterial loop is presented in a 32-year-old male. This loop originated on the retina beyond the optic disc border and returned to the lower branch of the central artery on the retinal tissue after making six spirals. The retinal circulatory dynamics of this eye, defined by fluorescein angiography, was observed over a period of 12 years with no loss of function to the involved eye.
