Purpose:
To describe the importance of a customized combined systemic and local therapy in the management of inflammatory choroidal neovascularization (iCNV).
Methods:
Observational retrospective case series.
Results:
Four iCNV cases, complicating posterior uveitis or panuveitis affecting young patients, are reported. Combination of both intravitreal (IVT) and systemic drugs represented a successful treatment strategy.
Conclusions:
iCNV is a sight-threatening disease which affects mostly young people. Customized and both systemic and IVT therapies might represent the best therapeutic option in order to obtain disease control and good prognosis.
