Drusen of the optic disk in retinitis pigmentosa.

R L Novack, R Y Foos.   

Abstract

To clarify the nature of mulberry-like excresences of the optic disk, we histopathologically studied the eye of a 66-year-old woman with retinitis pigmentosa. Examination showed that the optic nerve excresences were ordinary drusen and not hamartomas. There was a marked predisposition to mineralization of other intraocular structures.
