Patients in the REP database with vitelliform dystrophy. Eight unique ICD-9 codes were searched to capture all patients with vitelliform lesions. Patients with unrelated diagnoses, absence of vitelliform lesions, or insufficient available data were eliminated, leaving 27 patients with confirmed vitelliform lesions. Only two patients had genetically confirmed BVMD. There were 5 to 7 patients with possible BVMD and 18 to 20 patients with AVMD.
