PURPOSE: To describe the ocular features of 6 Czech and British patients with posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD) caused by mutations in the zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 gene (ZEB1).
METHODS: Case note review of 4 individuals with p.E776fs mutation, one with p.Y719X and one with p.F375fs mutation within the ZEB1 gene.
RESULTS: Five individuals exhibited endothelial and Descemet membrane changes consistent with the diagnosis of PPCD. We concluded that one 70-year-old female who had a normal endothelium at both slit lamp and non-contact specular microscopy was a case of non-penetrance. The onset of disease was as early as 3 months after birth. One patient had irregular astigmatism with inferior corneal steepening on videokeratography, but without corneal thinning or other signs of keratoconus. Two others had corneal steepening >49D but with regular astigmatism. Three individuals underwent penetrating keratoplasty (PK) in 1 eye, with one patient treated for secondary glaucoma prior to the PK.
CONCLUSIONS: The phenotype associated with changes in the ZEB1 gene exhibits variable expression and incomplete penetrance and seems to have a low risk for secondary glaucoma or the need for keratoplasty compared to PPCD linked to 20p11.2. There is insufficient data for phenotype correlations with PPCD caused by other genes.
