8. WFS1 is a highly polymorphic gene and determining the mode of inheritance or the pathological significance of a specific WFS1 variant is not always straightforward, especially in singleton cases with no access to other family members. Our study has revealed an interesting association between dominant missense WFS1 mutations and distinct OPL lamination on spectral domain OCT, which was not observed in patients with recessi PMID: 26875006
9. This is the second report to describe a pathological mutation in WFS1 among Korean patients and the second to describe the mutation in a different ethnic background.
