Abstract

Acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy is a disease of young healthy adults which is usually presented with sudden visal loss or blurred vision unilaterally or bilaterally. Besides the presence of multiple yellow-white placoid lesions at outer retinal layers; disease is diagnosed by early hypofluorescence and late hyperfluorescence of these lesions at fundus fluorescein angiography. We hereby report a patient with acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy and discuss the role of his optic coherence tomography and fundus autofluorescence imaging findings in the diagnosis of his disease

Özet

Akut posterior multifokal plakoid pigment epitelyopati genellik-le genç sağlıklı erişkinleri tutan, bir veya iki gözde görmede ani bir azalma veya bulanıklık ile bulgu veren bir hastalıktır. Reti-nanın dış katlarındaki çok sayıda sarı-beyaz renkli tipik plakoid lezyonların varlığının yanısıra fundus fluoresein anjiografide bu lezyonlarda erken hipofloresans ve geç hiperfloresans gösteril-mesi ile tanısı konulur. Bu yazıda akut posterior multifokal pla-koid pigment epitelyopati tanısı alan bir olgunun optik koherens tomografi ve fundus otofloresans görüntüleme yöntemlerinin hastalığının tanısındaki rolü tartışılacaktır
