Abetalipoproteinemia is a very rare disease with multisystemic manifestations.
Retrospective, case report.
We report a 9-year-old girl with a history of Bassen-Kornzweig syndrome diagnosed at the age of 3. The patient was referred to us by the pediatricians for ocular assessment. During the examination, an atypical pigmentary retinopathy and bilateral swelling of the optic discs were observed, with no consequences to her visual acuity.
Ophthalmic manifestations in Bassen-Kornzweig syndrome are not uncommon. We describe, for the first time, bilateral swelling of the optic discs, a sign that appears directly associated with abetalipoproteinemia.

巴森-科尔兹韦格综合征的眼部表现并不罕见。我们首次描述了双侧视盘肿胀,这一体征似乎与无β脂蛋白血症直接相关。
