Persistent subretinal fluid due to central serous chorioretinopathy after retinal detachment surgery
نویسندگان
چکیده
BACKGROUND The causes of persistent submacular detachment after successful rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) surgery remain unknown. Its presence is associated with poor postoperative visual acuity, but due to its spontaneous resolution no additional therapeutic or diagnostic procedure is recommended. CASE REPORT A case of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) that simulated persistent subfoveal fluid after RRD surgery is presented. CONCLUSION To the authors' knowledge, no other case of visual impairment after successful retinal detachment surgery due to CSC has been reported in the PubMed database. In view of this report, CSC should be considered in the differential diagnosis of persistent subretinal fluid after successful retinal detachment surgery.

Surgical Management of Bilateral Exudative Retinal Detachment Associated with Central Serous Chorioretinopathy
PURPOSE To report a case of bilateral bullous exudative retinal detachment in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) which was attached by vitrectomy and internal drainage of the subretinal fluid. METHODS A 47-year-old man affected by bilateral atypical CSC with a bullous retinal detachment with subretinal exudate. A fluorescein angiogram (FAG) showed multiple points of leakage and staining o...
متن کاملTranspupillary thermotherapy for atypical central serous chorioretinopathy
BACKGROUND Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) has been traditionally treated with laser photocoagulation. We thought that transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) utilizing a lower temperature than that of conventional laser photocoagulation might minimize permanent retinal and choroidal damage. Studies suggest that undesirable effects on vision due to TTT are minimal even if it is applied to fov...

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of spironolactone, a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, for nonresolving central serous chorioretinopathy. Methods: This is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled crossover study. Sixteen eyes of 16 patients with central serous chorioretinopathy and persistent subretinal fluid (SRF) for at least 3 months were enrolled. Patients were ran...
متن کاملMultifocal electroretinogram in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy.
PURPOSE To assess local retinal function of macula in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). METHODS Multifocal electroretinograms (ERGs) were recorded in 5 patients with unilateral CSC and 20 normal subjects. The waveforms from the central retina within 5 degrees of visual angle were analyzed. The first negative trough was designated as N1, the first positive peak as P1, and t...
متن کاملSubretinal exudative deposits in central serous chorioretinopathy.
The presence of subretinal exudation in a patient with neurosensory detachment of the macula frequently suggests the diagnosis of choroidal neovascularisation. A retrospective chart review of newly diagnosed cases of central serous chorioretinopathy revealed 11 patients, seven men and four non-pregnant women, who had plaques of subretinal exudate, which presumably were fibrin. Each of these pat...
