Background: Sectoral retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a rare clinical condition. Case Presentation: We present a 60-year-old femalewith a history ofmild night blindness and decreased vision in the left eye for about 15 years. Conclusions: Fundus examination revealed retinal pigmentary changes in the inferotemporal sector and reduced arterial caliber. In addition, fundus autofluorescence, fluorescein angiography,multifocal electroretinogramscans and electro-oculogramconfirmed these clinical findings. To the best of our knowledge, the present study is the first to describe sectorial RP in the inferotemporal sector of Iranian origin.
