Purpose
To investigate morphologic changes of acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy.Methods
This retrospective study included 63 eyes of 63 patients with unilateral acute CSC. All patients underwent simultaneous SD-OCT and fluorescein angiography examination using Spectralis HRA+OCT.Results
The external limiting membrane could be seen on SD-OCT, although the junction between photoreceptor inner and outer segments (IS/OS) was not detected in all eyes with retinal detachment (RD). However, IS/OS became visible after resolution of serous RD in 51 eyes (81.0%). SD-OCT images at the leakage sites showed a bump of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) in in 47 cases (68.1%) and pigment epithelial detachment (PED) in 22 of 69 leakage sites (31.9%). In 14 of 69 leakage sites (20.3%), highly reflective areas suggesting fibrinous exudate were observed in the subretinal space. In nine leakage sites (13.0%), sagging or dipping of the posterior retinal layer was seen. Abnormal RPE changes such as RPE bump and PED were observed in 12 of 22 fellow eyes (54.5%).Conclusions
A variety of morphologic changes could be identified on SD-OCT, and those findings may contribute more information to our understanding of the pathophysiology of CSC. 相似文献2.
Purpose
To report an eye with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) and a choroidal nevus.Methods
This is an observational case report.Results
A healthy 69-year-old woman was referred to the Osaka University Hospital with a diagnosis of a macular tumor. She complained of having distorted vision in her left eye. The medical history of the patient was unremarkable. At the initial examination, her best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/20 in both eyes, and the intraocular pressure was 18 mm Hg in both eyes. A slit-lamp examination showed no abnormalities in the anterior segment of both eyes and a fundus examination of the left eye showed a slightly elevated juxtafoveal chorioretinal lesion and polyp-like reddish-orange lesions. The juxtafoveal choroidal lesion was located beneath a choroidal neovascularization (CNV). An optical coherence tomography confirmed CNV with pigment epithelial detachment (PED). Fluorescein angiography showed juxtafoveal hyperfluorescence due to CNV. Indocyanine green angiography demonstrated a branching choroidal vascular network that resembled polypoidal lesions. A fundus autofluorescence showed a mosaic pattern and a slight hyperautofluorescence at the CNV. We diagnosed the patient as having PCV. Aflibercept was injected intravitreally because of her PED. After the injection, PED improved and her visual acuity remained stable during the 12-month follow-up period.Conclusions
In cases of PCV, FAF images are helpful in determining the status of the posterior pole. Intravitreal injections of aflibercept can improve PED associated with CNV, and the BCVA will remain stable for at least 12 months.Key words: Aflibercept, Autofluorescence, Choroidal nevus, Pigment epithelial detachment, Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy 相似文献3.

Summary statement
Intravitreal high dose (2 mg) ranibizumab may lead to quicker resolution of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and associated retinal pigment epithelial detachment in eyes with exudative age-related macular degeneration, although it may possibly correlate with RPE tears in certain cases.Purpose
This prospective study compared the outcomes of 0.5 vs 2.0 mg intravitreal ranibizumab injections (RI) for treating vascularized pigment epithelial detachment (vPED) due to age-related macular degeneration.Methods
Patients with vPED were randomized to receive 2.0 vs 0.5 mg RI monthly for 12 months or for 4 months and then repeated on a pro-re nata basis. Optical coherence tomography, fundus photography, and fluorescein and indocyanine-green angiography were obtained at baseline and subsequent specific intervals. Outcome measures were best-corrected standardized visual acuities, central 1-mm thickness, surface area (SA), greatest linear diameter (GLD), heights (PED and CNV), and amount of subretinal fluid (SRF) and cystoid macular edema (CME).Results
Both groups yielded reductions of the central 1-mm thickness, PED and CNV SA and PED height and GLD, SRF, and CME. Vision improvement and reduction in SRF and PED height occurred earlier for eyes receiving the 2.0 mg dose. Cataract progression was similar but RPE tears developed more often with the 2.0 mg dose.Conclusions
There were similar visual and anatomical outcomes at the end of the study; however, the higher dose yielded more rapid reductions and more complete resolution of the PED, although there was possible increased tendency for an RPE tear with the higher dose. 相似文献4.
Aim
To report the effects of intravitreal ranibizumab therapy for large, serous pigment epithelial detachment (PED), secondary to age-related macular degeneration, and occupying more than 50% of the total lesion area.Materials and methods
In a retrospective case series, visual acuity, ocular coherence tomography (OCT), and safety data were collected for 19 eyes of 19 patients, with serous PED and evidence of disease progression. Intravitreal ranibizumab of 0.5 mg was given with a loading phase of three consecutive monthly injections, followed by monthly review with further treatment, as indicated according to visual acuity and OCT findings. The change in visual acuity and maximum PED height from baseline to month 12 was determined.Results
Moderate visual loss was avoided in 18/19 eyes (95%) at the 12-month examination. In all, 12 eyes (63%) had an increase in ETDRS letter score from baseline, and five eyes (26%) had a gain of 15 or more letters. Although there was a trend for the PED height to reduce with treatment, in none of the cases was the PED seen to resolve completely. There was no difference in functional or anatomical outcome between the avascular and vascularised serous PED. A single eye developed a retinal pigment epithelium rip, complicated by extensive sub-retinal haemorrhage, during the study period.Conclusions
Visual acuity outcomes of intravitreal ranibizumab for large serous PED are comparable to those seen in multicentre, phase 3 trials of other lesion types, and were obtained without the need for either monthly, fixed treatment, or for continued treatment until the PED resolves. 相似文献5.

Purpose
To describe early macular hole (MH) development in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) after scleral buckling (SB) based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings.Methods
The medical records and spectral domain OCT images of patients in whom MH developed after RRD repair were evaluated retrospectively.Results
A postoperative MH was detected in five eyes that underwent SB during a 6-year period. All had fovea-off RRD without MH at the time of surgery. OCT showed partial loss of the inner retina with a preserved photoreceptor layer in early postoperative days. On average, 7 days (range,5 to 8 days) after surgery, outer retinal tissues disappeared, resulting in the full-thickness MH.Conclusions
Serial OCT findings revealed that partial-thickness lamellar holes progressed to full-thickness MHs, which were formed by the degeneration of the outer retina in eyes with preceding loss of the glial cone in the fovea. 相似文献6.

Purpose
To describe the OCT angiography characteristics of flat irregular pigment epithelial detachments (PEDs), an overlapping tomographic feature of various macular disorders.Methods
Consecutive patients with a dimpled retinal pigment epithelium profile on OCT, referred for a second opinion, were enrolled. Fluorescein (FA) and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) were performed in all patients and compared to previous examinations, when available. In all patients, enhanced depth imaging-OCT and OCT angiography were performed upon referral and at subsequent follow-ups.Results
Twenty-five eyes from 25 patients (9 women and 16 men, mean age of 63.4 years) were enrolled. The diagnoses of CSCR were already established by the referring physicians in 10 patients, acute in 15% and chronic in 26%; 48% of patients were referred with a diagnosis of type 1 CNV, and 11% of CSCR complicated by CNV. After performing OCT angiography, 2 masked examiner identified 7 type 1 CNV (29%), 18 eyes with pachychoroid disease of which 31% pachychoroid pigment epitheliopathies (PPEs) at baseline evolved to CSCR, 22% PPE at baseline evolved to pachychoroid neovasculopathy, 18% pachychoroid neovasculopathy stable.Conclusion
Central serous chorioretinopathy, type 1 CNV, and the pachychoroid spectrum of diseases cause abnormalities in the choroidal circulation that make the overlying RPE dysfunctional, resulting in flat irregular PED. Discrimination between avascular and vascular flat irregular PEDs is crucial for a good visual outcome, but since chronic alterations of the RPE can compromise the diagnostic specificity of FA and ICGA, OCT angiography may become a fundamental tool to differentiate these clinical entities.7.
Purpose
The goal of the present research was to study post-treatment changes in polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) shown by optical coherence tomography (OCT).Methods
The study included 12 patients with naive PCV. Photodynamic therapy and 3 consecutive intravitreal bevacizumab injections at 6-week intervals were given. Best corrected visual acuity, subretinal fluid (SRF), pigment epithelium detachment (PED), central macular thickness (CMT), and total macular volume (TMV) were measured before and after treatment as assessed by Stratus OCT3.Results
After treatment, the SRF height decreased earlier than the PED height. The SRF diameter decreased with statistical significance. However, the PED diameter did not show a statistically significant improvement, persisting at pre-treatment levels. Both CMT and TMV decreased significantly after treatment.Conclusions
After PCV treatment, SRF and PED stabilized, as shown by OCT. However, the PED treatment response was both delayed and refractory compared to the SRF response. The small change in post-treatment PED diameter may suggest the possibility of PCV recurrence. 相似文献8.

Background
We compared the visibility of retinal and choroidal pathologies using high-penetration optical coherence tomography (HP-OCT) with a long-wavelength light source (1,050 nm) and conventional spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT) in age-related macular degeneration (AMD).Methods
One hundred and forty-six eyes were included: 63 eyes with AMD, 79 eyes with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), and four eyes with retinal angiomatous proliferation. The SD-OCT and HP-OCT images were compared using the grading criteria to grade the visibility of the retinal changes, the line corresponding to the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), and the chorioscleral interface (CSI). In 132 eyes with a pigment epithelial detachment (PED), we graded the structures inside the PED, Bruch’s line, and the CSI. We compared the visibility of those changes in eyes with subretinal hyperreflective changes due to a subretinal hemorrhage (SRH) (n?=?17) or a hemorrhage inside the PED (HPED) (n?=?12).Results
HP-OCT provided superior visibility of the following structures compared to SD-OCT (P?<?0.01): the CSI, structures inside the PED, Bruch’s line inside the PED, the CSI inside the PED, SRH, type 1 CNV, polyps, and HPED. There were no significant differences between the two OCT devices in the scores for the RPE line, retinal morphology, or type 2 CNV and/or fibrin.Conclusion
HP-OCT visualizes morphologies beneath the RPE better than SD-OCT, and is equivalent to SD-OCT for visualizing morphologies above the RPE. 相似文献9.
Purpose
To investigate correlated factors on final visual acuity in conjunction with fluorescein angiography (FA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings of chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR).Methods
Twenty-four patients (36 eyes) with typical findings of chronic CSCR based on medical records, FA and OCT results were enrolled in this study. We investigated demographic findings, initial and final visual acuity (VA), and some typical findings of FA including the type of leakage pattern, the existence of a gravitational tract and an abnormal hyperfluorescent area centered on the fovea. We also investigated OCT findings to examine serous retinal detachment, outer photoreceptor layer (OPRL) preservation, continuity of the inner segment (IS) and the outer segment (OS) of the photoreceptor layer in case of macular attachment, and other typical findings. The converted logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution VA was used to investigate the statistical correlation with these FA and OCT findings.Results
An abnormal hyperfluorescent area within 1 macular photocoagulation study disc area on FA and cystoid degeneration on OCT were correlated with poor final VA of less than 20 / 40. However, the preserved OPRL and the continuity of IS / OS junction were correlated with a good final VA of 0.5 or more.Conclusions
These specific findings could be associated with recurrent or persistent subretinal fluid and could be important parameters of decision for treatment. 相似文献10.

Purpose
To report the clinical findings of 2 patients with focal choroidal excavation in the macula detected by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).Methods
Three eyes of 2 patients with a focal macular choroidal excavation detected by SD-OCT were studied. The eyes were examined by fundus autofluorescence (FAF), fluorescein angiography, fundus-related microperimetry, and multifocal electroretinography (mfERG).Results
In spite of a complaint of metamorphopsia, the visual acuity was normal in 2 eyes. SD-OCT demonstrated a choroidal excavation in the macula but the foveal contour was normal in 3 eyes. The excavation involved the outer retinal layers up to the external limiting membrane in all eyes, and a type 2 secondary choroidal neovascularization (CNV) developed in 1 of the 3 eyes. There were areas of hypoautofluorescence in the FAF images, and areas of decreased retinal sensitivity determined by microperimetry. These areas corresponded to the choroidal excavation in all eyes. The P1 amplitudes of the mfERGs were decreased in the fovea of 1 eye without a CNV.Conclusions
The choroidal excavation remained stable for 3 years in 2 eyes, a secondary CNV developed in 1 eye during the course of the disease. More cases and longer follow-up periods will be necessary to determine the etiology, clinical course, and visual prognosis of eyes with a choroidal excavation.Key Words: Choroidal excavation, Choroidal neovascularization, Optical coherence tomography 相似文献11.
Purpose
To report a case of choroidal excavation accompanied by Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease (VKH).Methods
A 54-year-old Japanese woman who was complaining of bilateral blurring of vision associated with headache underwent optical coherence tomography (OCT), fluorescein angiography, and indocyanine green angiography as well as a routine ophthalmological examination.Results
Fundoscopy showed papilloedema and serous retinal detachment in both eyes. Fluorescein angiography detected bilateral multifocal leakage with pooling of dye in the subretinal space. Indocyanine green angiography showed patches of hyperfluorescence and hypofluorescent spots bilaterally. A diagnosis of VKH was reached soon afterwards. OCT of the left eye revealed the presence of a unilateral choroidal excavation under the fovea and subretinal fibrin over the site of the excavation. Treatment successfully resolved VKH symptoms with gradual resolution of subretinal fibrin and fluid; however, the choroidal excavation remained.Conclusions
This case is the first report of choroidal excavation associated with VKH. Our results suggest that choroidal excavation can be induced by choroidal inflammation caused by VKH.Key words: Choroidal excavation, Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease, Optical coherence tomography, Uveitis 相似文献12.
Purpose
To report the presence of retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) in an eye with cuticular drusen detected by fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography by confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy and by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).Methods
Case report of a 65-year-old Japanese woman with cuticular drusen.Results
At her first ophthalmic examination, her visual acuity was 20/20 in both eyes. An ophthalmoscopy showed many small subretinal pigment epithelial deposits in both eyes. These deposits had a ‘saw-tooth pattern’ in the SD-OCT images. During the follow-up examination, retinal hemorrhages were observed, and fluorescein angiography showed a ‘stars-in-the-sky’ appearance and intraretinal neovascularization. The patient was diagnosed with cuticular drusen associated with RAP.Conclusion
We suggest that the cuticular drusen were associated with RAP, so periodic follow-up examinations are needed for patients with cuticular drusen for the early detection and treatment of RAP.Key Words: Cuticular drusen, Basal laminar drusen, Retinal angiomatous proliferation, Spectral domain optical coherence tomography 相似文献13.
Objective
The aim of this study was to clarify the characteristic findings in myopic choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and the relationship with lacquer crack (LC).Methods
In all, 66 consecutive myopic CNV patients treated with photodynamic therapy and/or intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injection in one eye were reviewed. Data from fluorescein angiography (FA) and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA), obtained simultaneously using the Heidelberg retina angiograph 2 (HRA2), were analyzed.Results
LCs were associated with a relatively large extent (≥3000 μm) of peripapillary choroidal atrophy and a dark rim, the proliferation of retinal pigment epithelial cells surrounding the neovascular membrane was accompanied by a small extent. Myopic CNV usually developed in the LC area surrounded by tiny crack fragments. In all, 35 patients with LCs received FA and ICGA at least twice during follow-up. LC progression was observed in nine (25.7%) treated eyes and six (23.1%) non-CNV fellow eyes. Crack fragments progressed in three distinct forms such as elongation, branching, or bridging pattern. Newly diagnosed myopic CNV was reported in 18 treated eyes and 3 fellow eyes. Progression of LCs and development of CNV occurred simultaneously in eight eyes. By multivariate Cox''s regression, a statistically significant association was observed between recurrence of myopic CNV and the absence of a dark rim on ICGA.Conclusions
The HRA2 instrument affords detailed high-resolution images of FA and ICGA. Notably, recurrence of myopic CNV developed in areas surrounded by new small crack fragments and LCs are considered to be important in the development of myopic CNV. 相似文献14.
Aim
To describe the frequency of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) in second eyes of patients undergoing ranibizumab therapy in their first eye and to evaluate the patterns of optical coherence tomography (OCT) abnormalities in fellow eyes before nAMD.Method
Patients who developed choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in the second eye while on treatment for the first eye were identified. OCT scans of the second eyes, performed before the onset of CNV, were retrospectively examined and graded. Frequency of second eye involvement was estimated and patterns of progression of OCT abnormalities were described and classified.Results
In all, 65 out of 749 consecutive patients required ranibizumab in their second eye for treatment-naïve nAMD over a 2-year period. The mean interval from commencement of ranibizumab in first eye to conversion in second eye was 12 months (2–35.5 months). There were three patterns of CNV development: group A (12%, n=8) had no OCT abnormalities in the second eye just before developing CNV; group B (38%, n=25) had no abnormalities at baseline but developed OCT changes more than one visit before conversion and group C (50%, n=32) had OCT changes from baseline, which did not progress until just before conversion.Conclusion
Patients with retinal pigment epithelial elevation without sub-retinal fluid on OCT in their fellow eyes have a high risk of progression to require therapy within a 2-year period. An anticipatory approach may be warranted, but a small group with completely normal OCT appearances can still develop lesions between visits. 相似文献15.

Purpose
To report cases of spontaneous retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) tear complicating serous pigment epithelial detachment (PED).Methods
The records of 3 Asian patients with spontaneous giant RPE tear were reviewed retrospectively by including clinical presentation, angiography, optical coherence tomography, fundus autofluorescence imaging, and visual outcome.Results
Three patients (4 eyes) were included in this study, with a mean age of 48.3 (42–56) years, and a mean follow-up period of 7.75 (4–18) months. Fundus examination in all patients showed giant RPE tear associated with bullous PED. Two cases had a history of prior corticosteroid use, and 1 had no history of medication use. All 3 patients developed spontaneous resolution of subretinal fluid with no treatment. However, in patients who used corticosteroids, initial progression of the tear and subretinal fluid were observed despite ceasing medication. On subsequent follow-up, an incomplete RPE regeneration was demonstrated by fundus autofluorescence imaging, and choroidal neovascularization developed in 1 patient.Conclusion
Large PED with RPE tear is a rare manifestation. When the fovea is spared, visual prognosis is favorable. No specific treatment is required, but careful choroidal neovascularization monitoring should be performed.Key Words: Retinal pigment epithelial tear, Pigment epithelial detachment, Retinal pigment epithelial rip 相似文献16.
Aim
To describe a patient with a giant pigment epithelial detachment (PED) secondary to exudative age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) successfully treated with a single intravitreal ranibizumab (Lucentis) injection (0.5 mg/0.05 ml).Methods
An 89-year-old woman presented with a six-day history of reduced vision and distortion in the left eye. Best-corrected visual acuity in that eye was 6/15. Fundoscopy revealed a giant PED and exudates temporally to the fovea. Optical coherence tomography showed a PED associated with subretinal and intraretinal fluid. Fluorescein angiography confirmed the diagnosis of an occult choroidal neovascularization. Treatment with intravitreal injections of ranibizumab (Lucentis) was recommended, although the increased risk of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) rip was mentioned.Results
Four weeks after the first intravitreal Lucentis injection, the visual acuity in the left eye improved to 6/7.5, with a significant improvement of the distortion and a complete anatomical resolution of the PED confirmed by optical coherence tomography.Conclusion
Giant PED secondary to exudative ARMD can be successfully treated with intravitreal ranibizumab, despite the increased risk of RPE rip. To our knowledge, this is the first case presenting with complete resolution of PED after a single ranibizumab injection.Key Words: Age-related macular degeneration, Anti-VEGF, Pigment epithelial detachment, Ranibizumab (Lucentis), Retinal pigment epithelium rip 相似文献17.
Purpose
To determine the effects of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) on multifocal electroretinogram (MF-ERG) parameters, to correlate MF-ERG and standard electroretinogram (ERG) and to correlate MF-ERG with findings of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in cases of RVO.Methods
Both eyes of 50 patients with RVO and 50 eyes of 25 normal subjects were examined using MF-ERG, standard ERG, fluorescein angiography and OCT. The latency in millisecond (ms) and response density in nanovolt (nv/degenerations) were measured for each of four quadrant areas and central area. OCT was used to measure the foveal retinal thickness. Fluorescein angiography was used to measure retinal ischemia.Results
Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) markedly affected all parameters of MF-ERG. In pathological quadrants in branch retinal vein occlusion, the response densities of MF-ERG were decreased and latencies of p-wave were prolonged. The MF-ERG responses obtained from eyes with RVO were significantly different (P > 0.05) from derived from the fellow eyes. The amplitude of MF-ERG were abnormal in 40 eyes and implicit times were delayed in 48 eyes compared with normal subjects. While 30 Hz flicker implicit were abnormal in only 24 eyes with RVO. Implicit times were prolonged in eyes with macular ischemia than in eyes without ischemia.There were significant correlation between foveal retinal thickness measured by OCT and P response density MF-ERG in cases of retinal vein occlusion.Conclusion
MF-ERG is more susceptible than standard ERG to eye changes of RVO due to the multiple frequencies of stimulation used to record MF-ERG response. MF-ERG could be sensitive indicator of underlying disease affecting the retinal in eyes with RVO. MF-ERG is useful for detecting local retinal dysfunction in patients with RVO and sensitive to morphological changes and functional disorders induced by RVO. 相似文献18.

Purpose
To study the relationship between macular ischaemia on fluorescein angiography (FA) and pathomorphology at the foveal centre delineated by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) in macular oedema (MO) associated with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO).Methods
One hundred and five consecutive eyes of 105 patients with MO (centre point thickness (CPT) ≥300 μm) associated with BRVO in which FA using Heidelberg Retinal Angiography 2 and Spectralis OCT were performed on the same day were retrospectively reviewed. We evaluated the foveal pathomorphology using OCT images and the association with macular ischaemia.Results
Within 1 year from symptom onset, 94 eyes were classified with perfused macula (34 eyes) or non-perfused macula (60 eyes). Eyes with perfused macula had better visual acuity and less CPT than those with non-perfused macula (P=0.024 and P<0.001, respectively). Fourteen eyes with perfused macula had serous retinal detachment (SRD) alone at the presumed foveal centre (SRD type); seven, a sponge-like swelling at that area (retinal swelling type); 11, foveal cystoid spaces alone (cystoid MO (CMO) type), and 2, with both SRD and foveal cystoid spaces (SRD+CMO type). However, 58 eyes with non-perfused macula had foveal cystoid spaces (42 of CMO type and 16 of SRD+CMO type), with a significant association between them (P<0.001). Among 11 eyes with symptoms exceeding 1 year, 6 eyes had perfused macula, and none had the SRD type.Conclusion
Most eyes without foveal cystoid spaces have perfused macula in MO associated with BRVO. 相似文献19.

Purpose
To report the first case of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to dengue fever.Case Report
A 54-year-old female was referred to our department with blurred vision and metamorphopsia in her left eye. Two weeks earlier, she had presented all of the classic symptoms of dengue fever including a positive serology. Her best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/150 in the left eye. She underwent a fundus examination, fluorescein angiography (FA) and spectral domain optical coherence tomography.Results
All findings were consistent with CNV secondary to dengue fever. FA revealed a classic CNV associated with focal retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) destruction and detachment. Three consecutive monthly injections of intravitreal ranibizumab resulted in functional and anatomical improvement for as long as 6 months with a BCVA of 20/25. However, CNV recurred 2 years later, again with an improvement after ranibizumab therapy, but with persistence of a fibrovascular RPE detachment, highlighting the pathomechanism of a classic CNV formation.Conclusions
Maculopathy in dengue fever may be followed by CNV as a result of the immunologic alteration of the RPE. Physicians should be aware of this manifestation to be able to initiate adequate treatment with excellent functional and anatomical results.Key Words: Dengue maculopathy, Choroidal neovascularization, Complement activation, Antiangiogenic therapy 相似文献20.
