Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita: a focus on its diagnosis, ophthalmic anomalies, and possible etiologic factors.

Conclusions: While the ophthalmic community has traditionally viewed glaucoma as the classic ocular anomaly of CMTC, this dataset advocates for the prompt investigation of posterior segment abnormalities as well. However, our understanding of CMTC's ocular anomalies is complicated by a lack of reporting and/or incomplete (or nonexistent) ophthalmic examinations, and we strongly encourage comprehensive ophthalmic examinations for all CMTC patients at the time of diagnosis, followed by appropriate screening and surveillance throughout life. We believe these recommendations will spur additional data and disease insights that may be useful for future refinements to CMTC diagnostic algorithms.
