Abstract

A case of bilateral CSC is reported: a 36-year-old man, whose fluorogram showed a peculiar change of leak type, namely smokestack phenomenon to ink-blot, and then to descending type in succession.

As the leak type changed to descending type, serous detachment of the macula extended to the inferior periphery, and shifting of subretinal fluid occurred.

Zusammenfassung

Das Fluoreszenzangiogramm zeigte eine eigenartige Änderung der Leckage: Vom Rauchfahnenphänomen zum Tintenkleckstyp und dann zum absteigenden Typ. Als der Leckage-Typ zum absteigenden Typ wechselte, erweiterte sich die seröse Ablatio der Macula bis in die untere Peripherie und zeigte Beweglichkeit der subretinalen Flüssigkeit.
