Parental Mosaicism in PAX6 Causes Intra-Familial Variability: Implications for Genetic Counseling of Congenital Aniridia and Microphthalmia

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
Mutations in PAX6 are involved in several developmental eye disorders. These disorders have considerable phenotypic variability, ranging from panocular forms of congenital aniridia and microphthalmia to isolated anomalies of the anterior or posterior ...

Germ cell and other tumors in individuals with differences in sex development

open access: yesCA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, Volume 75, Issue 6, Page 587-601, November/December 2025.
Abstract Approximately one in 3500 to one in 5100 live‐born infants have atypical external genital development, known as differences in sex development (DSD). In 2005, an expert consensus conference thoroughly reviewed aspects of health care for individuals with DSD.

Decoding the Genetic Puzzle of Inherited Retinal Dystrophies: Novel Insights From a Turkish Cohort

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 108, Issue 5, Page 532-552, November 2025.
This study analyzes 94 IRD patients from a Turkish cohort using a 141‐gene NGS panel, achieving a 74% diagnostic yield. The identification of 28 novel variants highlights the genetic diversity of IRDs in Türkiye and underscores the value of population‐specific molecular testing.

Structural brain abnormalities in 12 persons with aniridia [version 2; referees: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2017
Background: Aniridia is a disorder predominately caused by heterozygous loss-of-function mutations of the PAX6 gene, which is a transcriptional regulator necessary for normal eye and brain development.  The ocular abnormalities of aniridia have been well

Fluctuations in angle lambda with the pupil diameter and correlations with biometric values in a healthy population

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, Volume 45, Issue 7, Page 1837-1844, November 2025.
Abstract Purpose Angle lambda (λ) is defined as the angle between the line of sight and the pupillary axis at the entrance pupil. We previously developed a child‐friendly and portable method to measure this angle in daily practice. In a given population, angle λ fluctuates according to age or refractive error.

Combined aniridic intraocular lens implantation and vitreoretinal surgery

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2007
A 45-year-old man presented with post-traumatic aniridia. We describe the combined surgery done to treat both aniridia and epiretinal membrane simultaneously. A combined aniridia intraocular lens and vitreoretinal surgery was done.
