- Title
A case of Hallermann-Streiff-François syndrome: an ophthalmological perspective.
- Authors
Vassallo, James
- Abstract
Hallermann-Streiff-François syndrome is a rare condition which offers multidisciplinary diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The difficulty in dealing with these cases is compounded by the presentation at a very young age. The ophthalmologist has an important role in helping to establish a diagnosis and to recognize the need for early treatment to minimize amblyopia. This is a short report of the first documented local case which demonstrates many of the characteristic features of this syndrome and who has been followed up over three decades. A brief literature review is also presented.
