We examined a 73-year-old woman with the rare association of albinism and (presumably) congenital periodic alternating nystagmus. The mechanism of the nystagmus in this case is uncertain. Anomalous retinogeniculate pathways have been documented in albino animals. Periodic alternating nystagmus might occur in some patients with albinism if there are also anomalies in the pathways conveying visual information to the cerebellum and brainstem.
我们检查了一名73岁女性，她患有白化病与（可能的）先天性周期性交替性眼球震颤这种罕见的关联。该病例中眼球震颤的机制尚不确定。白化病动物中已记录到视网膜-膝状体通路异常。如果在将视觉信息传递至小脑和脑干的通路中也存在异常，那么白化病患者中可能会出现周期性交替性眼球震颤。
