Angioid streaks associated with pseudoxanthoma elasticum in a 13-year-old patient.

This report describes a 13-year-old girl who presented with angioid streaks associated with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE). Extensive retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) mottling, known as peau d'orange, characteristic of PXE, was also noted. The potential complication of choroidal neovascularization is described. Physicians should be aware that angioid streaks and their potentially sight-threatening complications can occur in this age group.
