[Central serous retinitis or chorioretinitis (retinopathy or chorioretinopathy) and central hemorrhagic chorioretinitis (juvenile disciform macular detachment; focal hemorrhagic chorioiditis, presumed histoplasmosis) (author's transl)].
There are no clinical or etiological connections between central serous and central hemorrhagic chorioretinitis, Serous chorioretinitis is seen mostly in men; full visual acuity is regained in approx. 80% of all cases. It mainly affects subjects aged between 36 and 45. Hemorrhagic chorioretinitis affects both sexes to about the same extent and causes severe impairment of visual acuity. Both forms should be regarded as genuine inflammations (chorioretinitis centralis serosa, chorioretinitis centralis hemorrhagica), not as "pathies". Whereas the hemorrhagica disease is generally thought to be caused by inflammation, the serous form also often shows signs of inflammation such as varying leakages with inflammatory depigmentation and more frequently inflammatory protein increase (exudate) with precipitation on the posterior surface of the retina/anterior surface of the pigment epithelium.
