A case of frosted branch angiitis with yellowish-white placoid lesions: fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography findings.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Severe, white sheathing of the retinal vessels and yellowish-white placoid lesions, suggesting frosted-branch angiitis, were found in both fundi of a 24-year-old woman. Fluorescein angiography showed hypofluorescence of the placoid lesions in the early phase and hyperfluorescence in the late phase. Indocyanine green angiography showed hypofluorescence during all phases. These findings imply an occlusion of the choriocapillaris. Fluorescein angiography also showed occlusion of the peripheral retinal vessels. With systemic corticosteroids and prostaglandin I2 derivative, the fundi recovered almost completely to normal 3 months later.
