title: [A case of multiple epitheliopathy associated with sub-retinal neovascularization].
abstract: Gass described the acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy in 1968. The disturbance of visual function is generally temporary with subsequent recovery. We describe one case of peripapillary and macular neovascularization with decreasing visual acuity due to macular haemorrhage followed by a fibro-glial scar. The pathogeny of the syndrome can explain the possible neovascularization. Neovascularization has been more often described with serpiginous choroiditis.
