Retinal vasculopathy with cerebral leukoencephalopathy and systemic manifestations

Retinal vasculopathy and cerebral leukoencephalopathy is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations of the TREX1 gene. It is a vasculopathy affecting small vessels. This disorder is not limited to cerebroretinal vessels but can also manifest systemically with renal dysfuntion and stroke.
