Informations about the disease
Oculocutaneous albinism is a group of disorders that affect the pigmentation of the skin, hair and eyes. Long-term sun exposure increases the risk of skin damage and skin cancer, including malignant melanoma. Reduced pigmentation of the iris and retina leads to decreased visual acuity, nystagmus and photophobia. The most common forms of albinism are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. The diagnostic yield captures the genetic forms in approximately 50% of the patients. An inconspicuous genetic finding does not mean that the suspected clinical diagnosis is excluded. Even in the corresponding absence of syndromologic signs, Hermansky-Pudlak, Chediak-Higashi and Griscelli syndrome types 1 and 2 should not be disregarded in the differential diagnosis of ocular/oculocutaneous albinism.
