Abstract Purpose To report a case of multifocal choroiditis (MC) that has relapsed as choroidal neovascularization in the contralateral eye followed by a mixed aspect of multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) and MC. Methods Retrospective case report and literature review. The clinical findings were documented by fluorescein angiography, optical coherence tomography, and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A). Results The authors describe the case of a 39-year-old woman with prior ocular history of presumed MEWDS in her left eye, which developed into MC 7 years later in the same eye and 11 years later in the right eye, starting as choroidal neovascularization and developing into MEWDS. OCT-A showed neovessel in a supposedly active MC area outside the macular region in right and left eyes. OCT showed increased choroidal thickness in both eyes and a choroidal neovascularization in the right eye, treated using anti- VEGF therapy. Conclusion This case corroborates the proximity of some inflammatory diseases such as MC and MEWDS. OCT-A has opened new horizons for the better understanding of some retinal diseases by providing more thorough and promising morphological analyses using enhanced tools.

The purpose was to demonstrate the diagnostic and therapeutic feasibility of swept source-optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) by picturing neovascular changes secondary to a rare white dot syndrome following long-term intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR). A 28-year-old Caucasian myopic female presented with visual loss in her right eye only. The clinical examination and multimodal imaging including spectral domain (SD)-OCT, blue-peak autofluorescence, fluorescein, and indocyanine green angiography (HRA Spectralis, Heidelberg Engineering; Heidelberg, Germany) as well as SS-OCTA (DRI Triton, Topcon; Tokyo, Japan) led to the diagnosis of idiopathic punctate inner choroidopathy with secondary subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV). In addition to oral corticosteroids, a pro re nata regimen with IVR was initiated and guided by repeated SD-OCT and SS-OCTA. Six IVR were administered based on functional SS-OCTA en face scans illustrating vessel transformation and downsizing of the CNV area while SD-OCT B-scans were inconclusive as indirect signs of activity were absent throughout the follow-up period. SS-OCTA provided new possibilities for monitoring vessel development. IVR was managed based on vessel density as displayed by SS-OCTA.
