Genetic variant of Stickler's syndrome.

Cases Reports: Three myopic components of a same family came for study because presented severely degraded vitreous, equatorial membranes, retinal pigment epithelium hyperplasia, vascular sheathed and sclerosis of peripheral predominance. A genetic study confirmed the diagnosis of Stickler syndrome with a variant in the mutation of the COL2A1 gene.

Discussion: Stickler's syndrome should be suspected in families with a characteristic phenotype with vitreous syneresis and alterations in the retina, but there may be genetic variants that do not express the classic phenotype.
