title: Shiny multifocal chorioretinitis with papillitis.
abstract: We report a case of unilateral inflammation involving the retinal pigment epithelium-choriocapillaris complex and the optic disc, characterized by multiple, small, shiny, yellowish-white subretinal lesions involving the midperiphery of the retina and associated with optic disc edema. These lesions showed hypofluorescence in the early transit phase of the fluorescein angiogram and leakage in the late phase. Perivascular staining of the retinal vessels and diffuse optic disc leakage were also present. A benign course associated with marked visual improvement and resolution of the inflammatory lesions occurred.
