Oculocutaneous Albinism

Heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive disorders comprising at least four recognized types, all having in common varying degrees of hypopigmentation of the skin, hair, and eyes. The two most common are the tyrosinase-positive and tyrosinase-negative types.

Also Known As:

Albinism, Yellow Mutant; Albinism, Oculocutaneous; Yellow Mutant Albinism; Albinism, Tyrosinase Negative; Albinism, Tyrosinase Positive; Mutant Albinism, Yellow; Mutant Albinisms, Yellow; Tyrosinase-Negative Albinism; Tyrosinase-Positive Albinism; Yellow-Mutant Albinism; Albinism, Tyrosinase-Negative; Albinism, Tyrosinase-Positive; Albinism, Yellow-Mutant
