| Popis: |
A 55-year-old male was diagnosed with exudative-hemorrhagic maculopathy, with no signs observed of drusen or pigmentary epithelium defects suggestive of age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). Fluorescein angiography (FA) and indocyanine green choroidal angiography (ICGA) showed retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP). Afferent arteriole and retinal drainage venule connection was also observed. Treatment with a single Photodynamic Therapy provided an optimal outcome.RAP is a form of neovascular ARMD described in recent years; it consists of an angiomatous proliferation that originates from the retinal capillary system and extends posteriorly into the subretinal space. Our patient showed typical RAP findings without any sign of ARMD |
