PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical finding of macular subretinal fluid by optical coherence tomography in patients with acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy. METHODS: Patients with acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy were identified, and those with macular serous retinal detachment noted clinically and confirmed by optical coherence tomography are described. RESULTS: Of 8 patients with acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy evaluated by the uveitis service at the Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary between 2003 and 2008, 4 eyes of 3 patients presented with macular subretinal fluid. Confirmatory optical coherence tomography was performed in two patients. CONCLUSION: Acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy may present clinically with macular subretinal fluid. This finding can be confirmed and monitored with optical coherence tomography.
