Flourescein angiography in mild stages of dominant exudative vitreoretinopathy.
Dominant exudative vitreoretinopathy is a distinct entity among the vitreoretinal dystrophies. We found that fluorescein angiography is indispensable in showing the primary detectable abnormalities of the disorder and in distinguishing affected from unaffected individuals. The fluorescein angiographic findings in the early disease process consist of mildly dilated and leaking capillaries in the posterior pole and capillary closure in the temporal retinal periphery. Furthermore, dragging of perimacular capillaries and vessels, abnormal tortuous and stretched vessels, and arteriovenous shunts are seen in the periphery.
