Posterior Polymorphous Corneal Dystrophy in a Patient with a Novel <i>ZEB1</i> Gene Mutation

Posterior Polymorphous Corneal Dystrophy in a Patient with a Novel <i>ZEB1</i> Gene Mutation

Posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD), a rare, bilateral, autosomal-dominant, inherited corneal dystrophy, affects the Descemet membrane and corneal endothelium. We describe an unusual presentation of PPCD associated with a previously unknown genetic alteration in the <i>ZEB1</i&g...
