Novel homozygous CLN3 missense variant in isolated retinal dystrophy: A case report and electron microscopic findings.

Our results indicated that this novel CLN3 missense variant is associated with teenage-onset isolated retinal dystrophy. This is the first report of any patient with CLN3-associated disorder in the Japanese population. Although fingerprint profiles have never been reported in CLN3-associated isolated retinal dystrophy, these profiles were observed, albeit infrequently, suggesting that frequency of the fingerprint profiles might depend on variant types.
