title: Posterior epiretinal neovascularization associated with sectoral retinal ischemia.
abstract: Two cases of large, posteriorly located epiretinal neovascular membranes are presented that were associated with a nasal wedge of retinal ischemia of unknown cause in young Caucasian men without associated systemic disease. A technique of staged, argon laser scatter photocoagulation to the ischemic retina resulted in dramatic regression of the neovascular fronds in both cases.
