Abstract

PURPOSE: To describe a case of exudative macular detachment secondary to peripheral exudative chorioretinopathy with a favorable anatomic and visual outcome following treatment with intravitreal bevacizumab.
METHODS: The medical records of a patient with peripheral exudative chorioretinopathy were reviewed.
RESULTS: Macular reattachment was achieved with a corresponding visual acuity improvement that was maintained over an uncomplicated 17-month clinical course.
CONCLUSIONS: Bevacizumab may be an effective treatment option for exudative macular detachment secondary to peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chorioretinopathy.
