Reticular dystrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium and choroidal neovascularization. A fluorescein and ICGV study

Abstract

We report the clinical history of 2 patients affected with reticular dystrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium and central choroidal neovascularization. With time, spontaneous reduction of the subretinal fluid associated with consequent improvement of the visual acuity has been noted in our first case. The second patient showed a stable fibrotic subfoveal choroidal neovascularization. Conventional fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green videoangiography findings are illustrated. The differential diagnosis between other reticular pigmented lesions often associated with choroidal neovascularization is discussed.
