RVCL Research at Penn

Retinal vasculopathy with cerebral leukoencephalopathy (RVCL or RVCL-S) is a rare inherited disease that affects approximately half of the people in families that have the disease. Currently, there is no effective treatment for RVCL, but we are working to find a cure. The RVCL Research Center at Penn is comprised of medical and research specialists, including clinicians, researchers, and genetic counselors, who work together to support patients and families suffering from this rare disease.
