摘要
This case report describes the presentation, diagnostic reasoning, and successful management of a 14-year-old teenage boy found to have bilateral peripapillary choroidal neovascularization.This is a case of a teenage boy with an unremarkable ocular and systemic history presenting with decreased visual acuity, macular edema, and bilateral peripapillary choroidal neovascularization.After intravitreal antivascular endothelial growth factor injections, the patient's visual acuity improved. Imaging further revealed that the initially present macular edema, subretinal fluid, and peripapillary choroidal neovascularizations markedly improved after treatment.Peripapillary choroidal neovascularizations are often not trivial to diagnose. As this report illustrates, work-up with different modalities is extremely valuable, and antivascular endothelial growth factor injections may help decrease exudation and improve visual outcomes.
