Pachychoroid neovasculopathy can mimic wet type age-related macular degeneration - International Journal of Retina and Vitreous
Source : https://journalretinavitreous.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40942-022-00429-6
Purpose to determine the percentage of patients with pachychoroid neovasculopathy (PNV) among patients who have been misdiagnosed and treated with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Methods In this retrospective cross-sectional...
Conclusions: "This study revealed that about a one-fifth of wet AMD patients are actually pachychoroid neovasculopathy. These patients were younger and had thicker SFCT, and developed less subretinal scarring. Thus, the disorder must be considered as an important differential diagnosis of AMD-CNV."
