Septo-Optic Dysplasia: A Case Series of 33 Patients.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to record the clinical, neuro-radiological, and systemic features of patients with septo-optic dysplasia (SOD). A retrospective review of patients was conducted to identify patients with features consistent with SOD over a 6-year period, including optic nerve hypoplasia with agenesis of midline structures, along with an absent septum pellucidum and/or agenesis of the corpus callosum. Thirty-three patients were identified. The male to female ratio was 2:1, while the median age at diagnosis was 5 years (interquartile range = 10 years, range = 0-44 years). Optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH) was bilateral in 81.81% of cases (n = 27) and unilateral in 18.18% of cases (n = 6), with three cases in each eye. Developmental delay was documented in 24.2% (n<
