Abstract

We report the case of a 72-year-old white woman with blurring of vision in both eyes of 15 days' duration. She had a history of treatment for bilateral tuberculosis choroiditis 20 years before. She was diagnosed with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy in the right eye and inflammatory choroidal neovascular membrane in the left eye, based on multimodal imaging, including optical coherence tomography, fundus fluorescein angiography, and indocyanine green angiography. The right eye received 3 intravitreal injections of aflibercept and showed complete resolution. The left eye was treated with a single intravitreal injection of aflibercept.

结核性脉络膜炎消退20年后的息肉状脉络膜血管病。
我们报告了一例72岁的白人女性,双眼视力模糊,持续15天。20年前,她有双侧结核性脉络膜炎的治疗史。根据多模式成像,包括光学相干断层扫描、眼底荧光素血管造影和吲哚青绿血管造影,她被诊断为右眼息肉状脉络膜血管病和左眼炎性脉络膜新生血管膜。右眼接受了3次玻璃体内注射阿法西普,显示完全消退。左眼接受单次玻璃体内注射阿法西普治疗。
