| Abstract Nr. | P13 |
| But | To report the occurrence of macular pseudoholes after photodynamic therapy (PDT) with verteporfin. |
| Méthodes | small case series of 5 patients diagnosed with subfoveolar choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and treated with PDT with verteporfin. Analysis and evolution of visual acuity, fluoangiography and optical coherence tomography. |
| Résultats | case 1: 58 yo woman, myopic CNV; formation of a lamellarshaped macular hole after PDT. Case 2: 57 yo woman, myopic CNV; formation of a macular pseudohole after PDT. Case 3: 86 yo woman, ARMD CNV; formation of a macular pseudohole after PDT. Case 4: 87 yo woman, age related macular degeneration (ARMD) CNV; formation of a lamellarshaped macular hole after PDT. Case 5: 81 yo man, idiopathic polypoidal choroidal neovascularization; formation of a lamellarshaped macular hole after PDT. |
