Clinical and Genetic Study of X-Linked Juvenile Retinoschisis in the Czech Population

The aim of this study was to identify <i>RS1</i> pathogenic variants in Czech patients with X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) and to describe the associated phenotypes, including natural history, in some cases. Twenty-one affected males from 17 families were included. The coding region of &l...
