Multiple retinal pigment epithelial detachments: what should we do? A propos of an idiopathic case

Vários descolamentos do epitélio pigmentar da retina: o que devemos fazer? A propósito de um caso idiopático

Abstract

The purpose is to report the management of multiple retinal epithelial detachments (PEDs) in a 50-year-old male with bilateral PEDs not associated with chorioretinal or systemic pathologies after a complete study. Idiopathic multiple PEDs could be a variation of central serous chorioretinopathy, but other causes as well as other pathological conditions which could produce similar images, are required to be ruled out.

Keywords:
Central serous chorioretinopathy; Fluorescein angiography; Indocyanine green; Tomography, optical coherence; Retinal detachment
