[An unusual form of cogwheel macula degeneration: central and paramacular alveolar pigment epitheliopathy (author's transl)].
A peculiar and rare form of spoke-like macular lesion is described as found bilaterally in a 53 year old woman. The unmistakable ophthalmoscopic and angiographic findings are also discussed. Although the clinical picture can be explained by a pigment epitheliopathy with secondary involvement of the neuroepithelium, the precise etiology of this fundus disease still remains problematic.
