Purpose:
Discreet chorioretinal spots, neovascular maculopathy, peripapillary atrophy and peripheral curvilinear pigmentary-atrophic streaks are characteristic of Multifocal Choroiditis. We report the presence of curvilinear streaks in the posterior pole.
Methods:
Observational series.
Results/Conclusions:
Like chorioretinal discreet spots, peripheral curvilinear atrophic-pigmentary streaks may also appear in the posterior fundus, including the macular region, in Multifocal Choroiditis.
