Abstract

Purpose: To report a case series of four patients with torpedo maculopathy and the review of their varied presentations with the analyse s of retinal imaging. Case series: Complete ophthalmological examination including optical coherence tomography (OCT), fluorescein angiography (FA) in one case and fundus autofluoresecence (FAF) were evaluated. Results: All patients had ovoid, well-defined lesion located temporal to the fovea that was noticed incidentally during routine eye examination. OCT revealed attenuation of retinal layers to varying degrees and subretinal cavitation in some cases. Fluorescein angiography and FAF showed different pattern of fluorescence. Conclusion: In this article, torpedo maculopathy cases with different clinical and imaging findings were presented.
