We report here an 8-year-old patient with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and bilateral Peters anomaly with congenital glaucoma; in addition, our patient was found to have a single heterozygous mutation in CYP1B1, c.83C > T, p.(Ser28Trp).
No CYP1B1 mutations were found in another 13 patients (7 of whom underwent PK in at least 1 eye) who had CCO with iridocorneal or keratolenticular adhesions (Peters' anomaly types I and II, respectively).
Recently, the CYP1B1 gene was found to be associated with Peters' anomaly, and the gene associated with oculodentodigital dysplasia syndrome, which presents some similarities with AR, was identified (connexin 43--GJA1 gene).
