Extractions: Aniridia is a developmental defect of the eye that may occur sporadically or may be inherited in a family. In the majority of cases, aniridia is an isolated finding, however, it may rarely occur as part of the contiguous gene deletion syndrome, WAGR (Wilms tumor, aniridia, genitourinary anomalies and mental retardation). The features of WAGR are variable and affected individuals are at an increased risk to develop Wilms tumor. Reasons for Referral: Patients with isolated aniridia or clinical features suggestive of WAGR syndrome may be tested for deletions of 11p13 by FISH simultaneously with high-resolution chromosomal analysis (if not previously performed). Approximately 20-30% of patients with aniridia will have an abnormality of 11p detectable by high-resolution chromosome studies. Prenatal diagnosis may be performed if an affected family member has been studied in our laboratory and shown to have a deletion detectable by FISH. Please call regarding all prenatal samples.

Published in Cancer Detection and Prevention 1996; 20(5).

METHODS: Literature review. RESULTS: Aniridia develops as a result of a mutation in the PAX6 gene which is a part of the WAGR region in chromosome 11p13. Two thirds of all cases of aniridia present an isolated familial autosomal dominant disorder affecting only several eye structures. It is due to intragenic mutations in the PAX6 gene and therefore the patients carry a standard risk for neoplastic proliferation. In the other third of the aniridic patients the disorder is sporadic and some of them may display features of the contiguous gene syndrome of Wilms tumor, aniridia, genitourinary anomalies and mental retardation. About one third of the patients with sporadic aniridia develop Wilms tumor and this risk raises to 68% if an 11p13 deletion is found. Gonadal dysgenesis, a precancerous state, and gonadoblastoma may be the expression of the genitourimary anomalies, thus representing other risks for these patients.
